Poured a golden yellow in color with almost no head and low carbonation. Aroma s malty and slightly skunked. Flavor is also malty. Palate is good. Still an OK beer.
Draft at VT Brewers Fest - Golden yellow with a decent white head that hung in there. Aroma is slightly of hops with some faint citrus as well. Flavor is light with a small amount of hops. Easy drinking, but nothing that remarkable. Certainly better than the macro-swill, but just OK.
5/1/05 - Bomber - Another try... Pours a darkish amber in color with a white head that faded to the rim of the glass. Aroma is more malty than I remember and the hops not as pronounced. Flavor is a nutty malt with a mild hop bitterness. Also much more pleasant than I remember. Slightly sour/citrus. Not bad and easy drinking... I am glad that I tried this again.

Thought it was great in high school -- finally a "good beer" i could drink in a way I could drink bud. Don’t expect anything special from this, but I suppose it’s hard to find too much wrong with it, as long as you’re not looking for something to change your life.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 9, 2004 A fine pale ale. Light amber with a full white head and lacing. Lemon citrus in the nose. Good malt and hop balance, full-bodied. Falls apart a bit if it stays too long in the glass, so don’t let that happen! glider (53), Shrub Oak, New York, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 30, 2004 Had a pint (draft) in Montana’s Steak House in Northampton MA with, among other things, a filet mignon. The brew was fun, didn’t seem to take itself too seriously, looked great (yellow) and had a sweet start and sweet finish. Also a dry finish, not oily. A bit fizzy, but I don’t usually drink fizzy’s. Nowhere near as good as any of the Dogfish Head PAs, but considering what the restaurant had to offer, their best selection, and had I not split a bottle of vino with the missus, I would have had a few more. beaconstreet (811), Washington DC, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 11, 2004 Toned and golden, with many bubbles. What does it taste like? That flavor punctuation rings on your taste buds... then you have it: Lucky Charms! The beer tastes just like Lucky Charms, with its mix of sugar and grain tastes. Nice, sweet aftertaste that lingers with joy. Also a mild honey overtone. A medium-light color, gold but not domineering. MaiBockAddict (1499), Good Beer Bar Deprived, New Jersey, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 11/20 | Mar 25, 2004 Cloudy yellow, white head. A little cooked vege in the aroma, and hops. Hoppy refreshing brew, light yet not too light. OK summer lawnmower brew. mkobes (2104), paramus, New Jersey, USA
