Commercial Description:
Malty, malty, malty! This springtime refresher gets its smooth, mellow flavor from three different types of barley - including rare "Special Roast" for rich color and character.

Had this beer on 6/15/1998. Color is darker than I thought it would be , it is a deep rich amber with good carbonation and light head. Aroma is good, full of a nice fresh hop scent. Taste is smooth and refreshing. It starts off with a good body that goes down smooth giving you a light malt taste. The finish is also good as the malt taste fades you taste the hops with a light bitterness. Overall its a good beer, it’s refreshing and light.
