yespr (6889), Copenhagen O, Denmark Aug 6, 2008 From tap at Yards, Pasadena. Pours clear and orange with a lacing white head. Light butterish aroma. Mild spiced and bitter flavour with a distinct butterish base flavour. Ends dry and solid diacetyl. Not good. They got 100 taps going - obviously too many to check daily for quality :( Ungstrup (11354), Frederiksberg, Denmark Aug 5, 2008 Draft at Yard House, Pasadena. A light golden beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet malty with light notes of citrus as well as a light skunkyness as if too little malt has been used. The flavor is sweet malty with light notes of butter and again a light skunkyness, leading to a dry finish with notes of both straw and the skunky note. Snojerk321 (1009), San Diego, California, USA Dec 19, 2007 On draft from a buddies keg-o-rator. Clear golden in color, head was very foamy and off white. Nose of spice, banana, and some citrus hops. Gusler (2656), Tucson, Arizona, USA Nov 4, 2007 On tap at Yard House, poured a clear gold, smallish white head that disappeared quickly, lace formed a velum like sheet. Nose sweet malt, crisp and clean. Start was sweet with malt, slight hop bite at back. Top light to moderate in feel. Finish had a biting acidity, the hops apropos to the style, dry lingering aftertaste, refreshing, but unremarkable. riversideAK (1632), Shoreline, Washington, USA May 22, 2007 No real aroma to speak of except a slight diacetyl/butterscotch. Pale yellow gold with a small velvey head. I taste some butterscotch, some corn, some nice sweet malt, and some mild crispness. Pretty thirst quenching and pretty easy to pound. It is funny because every Bayhawk beer I have ever had has smelt and mildly tasted of diacetyl. Perhaps this is their secret to making mildly pleasant beers?
