bsjay (54), Oregon, USA Oct 28, 2009 I’ll take a blond over an extra pale (or at least one this meek) any day, no matter how hot it is out there. This one has barely enough hops or malt to distinguish it. dwyerpg (2519), Las Vegas, Nevada, USA Sep 10, 2009 A citrus orange aroma. Looks okay. This beer is fairly citrusy and is easy-drinking but it isn’t particularly exciting and certainly not good enough to replace Sierra Nevada. arrogantb (694), Denver, Colorado, USA Sep 8, 2009 12 oz bottle poured into a pint glass a clear yellow with a decent one inch white head. Smell was faint hops, a little earthy. The taste was mild with a little citrus and more earthiness. The drinkability was outstanding as the ABV was low and the beer went down so smooth. Great session beer.

jzzbassman (838), New Albany, Mississippi, USA Aug 14, 2009 Pours a light gikd without much of the white head. Nice bready aroma, with some citric elements. Weak in flavor, very light, with not much malt or hops unclemattie (2370), Georgia, USA Aug 11, 2009 12oz bottle. 4 Malts, 3 Hops. Sunshine in a glass. Kellogg’s Corn Flakes Rooster on the label. Light orange pour. Aroma of citrus and honey. Sweet and grapefruit. Flavor is a sweet grapefruit with a mouthful of cereal. Yum, corn flakes with grapefruit juice. Medium- light bodied. I like it a lot! Finishes with a sharp, crisp citrus rind bitterness. Very nice. ChainGangGuy (2522), Kennesaw, Georgia, USA Aug 10, 2009 Appearance: Pours out a slightly hazy, orange-yellow body with a small, short-lived, white head. Saying it looks like "Sunshine in a Glass" may be overdoing it, but it does look reasonably cheerful. "Reasonable Cheeriness in a Glass." There you go.
Smell: Subdued aroma of barley malt with a small hint of grains along with some whiffs of spicy, faintly floral European hops. Also a small touch of citrus lurking in there.
Taste: Starts off with light, crisp pale malts carrying with them some modest grainy tones and a mild sweetness. Hint of orange citrus character. Noble hops along with a very, very minimal amount of bitterness. Drying, lightly effervescent finish.
Mouthfeel: Light-bodied. Medium carbonation.
Drinkability: It’s a refreshing brew for both Spring and Summer months and a fine candidate for a lawnmower beer, though, as I’m currently based in an apartment, it still makes for fine drinking whilst watching the landscape maintenance crew do their thing. This sip is for you, Guy with Leaf Blower!
