May 24, 2009 Draft at the brewpub. Light amber color with a lightly lacing white head. Light caramel aroma with a little grassy hop. Medium body with mild carbonation. Flavor is caramel with a surprising dose of citrus/grass bitter. Ends lightly sweet with lingering bitter. [I used that word in my brewpub notes hours before I saw HighWine’s rating]. Quite nice.

May 23, 2009 Seasonal tap at the brewery. Straw color, thin white head. Faint nose witha touch of sour apple. Good balance of hops and malt. The bittering hops linger

Jun 12, 2007 10 ounce sample tasted at Rubcon’s Maibock Festival. Faint, grainy, metallic hopped aroma with some cardboardy aromas, too. Transparent golden body with a small foamy off-white head. Sprizy, rather carbonated start with some sweet malts present. Some honey-like flavors then follow. Finishes with a mild metallic hoppiness. Pretty drinkable stuff.

May 28, 2007 Pours golden with medium head. Aromas are mildly malty. Flavors are a bit sweet. It’s an average brew, nothing really stands out about it.
