Commercial Description:
A unique twist on the California common beers, or steam beer. Brewed with lager yeast at ale temperatures and then cold conditioned, to accentuate the ingredients. Subtley sweet maltiness with a hint of caramel, combined with a lingering hop aroma make this session beer anything but ordinary! Season: all Color: deep gold/light copper

Had this one on draught at the brewpub on Canal Street, Boston, Massachusetts. Poured clear and medium amber with a nice, thick white head. Light, sweet malty nose with some fruitiness; nuanced maltiness continues in the flavor. This is quaffable in the extreme.

On tap at the Fenway location. Nice amber color with a light malty aroma. Very good light, sweet malty taste that was wonderfully smooth.

On draught January 2005 at Canal St. A slightly hazy orange-amber body with a small white head. Aroma of yeast, earthy malt and very dry, almost grassy hops. Flavor is lightly crisp, but has a smooth, almost fruity bouquet of flavors emerge as the body wraps itself around your tongue. Not watery or light at all, for the style. Sweet and buttery malt mixes well with the crisp yeast and lightly dry hops. A very good representation of the style. Very drinkable.

On tap at both Boston locations. Pours golden with a small white head. Nose is malty and clean. A little bit nutty and fruity flavor. Drinkable and on point with the style. Pretty good.
