Draft. Clear gold, slightly orange pour. Initialy light citrus hoppy aroma, and very little if any malt. Light maltly flavor, maybe some light fruit. Seemed watery, and had a little bitterness which lingered.

Tap at Old Chicago. Pretty much what I expected in color, head, and aroma from a blond ale. However, the malt and hop flavors were nicely balanced and stood up well to the pizza I ordered this beer with. In fact, if I had to recommend a beer to someone looking for something non-BMC to have with "bar food," this would be one of the first out of my mouth.

Tap at Walnut Brewery. Pours gold with a thin white head and lined lacing. Sour grain(sour) aroma. Sour sweet corn malt flavor with some sugar notes. Light bodied and fizzy, crisp.

re-rate Feb 02, 2007 courtesy of Kenb. Wow I was dead on witht he creamed corn aroma. That is what it smells like Mashed up corn and grain with some sugar thrown in. Sweet and grainy. The body is a pale rust gold with a diminishing white head. <P> Lightly honey touched water is what I taste. This really did suck that bad the first time. Save your money. It doesn’t exatly taste or small awful but it knocks ont he door and what you do get is so reserved and lame it just isn’t worth your time. <P> Original rating was 1.7 <P> <P> Funky creamed corn aroma. Poured nice with fast fading, but fluffy head and a orange tinged golden color to the body. Corny, water flavor. Mild and I mean very mild spiciness in the finish. Thin almost watery body. pretty unsatisfying on the whole.

From a bottle purchased in Wichita. Poured a fairly dark gold color. The aroma is peaches, nutmeg and caramel. The taste has spicy black pepper and a little apple. There is a smoky undertone throughout. An interesting brew.

[Tap at Rock Bottom, Denver] A hazy light orange beer with a small white head. The aroma is very light - what is there is hoppy. The flavor is malty with notes of lemon, oranges, and flowers, leading to a dry end. The body is thin.
