drowland (1337), Tallahassee, Florida, USA Aug 14, 2009 Had this on tap at the brewpub but was in town for a wedding with a lot of family and didn’t take good tasting notes beyond the numbers. EithCubes (2139), Indiana, USA Jul 11, 2009 Draught at the pub. Yellow-golden pour with steady white carb. Quenching citrus with a nice pretzel and bready/doughy end. Very faint hops with light rubbery astringency. Medium-full body a little too full for style, but lasting impression is very nice, a super summer beer. shawnm213 (841), South Bend, Indiana, USA Jun 11, 2009 draft at brewpub. pours a hazy yellow with a small white head. notes of pale malts and citrusy hops. neither is very prominent though. kp (8400), Woodstock, Georgia, USA Apr 27, 2009

patrick767 (2016), fort wayne, Indiana, USA Jan 18, 2009 tap at the brewpub - Pours yellow with a thin white head and has a light, fruity aroma with bready malt. The flavor is sweet malt with some mild hops and fruit accents. It’s light, sweet, and good for what it is. Rastacouere (5551), Montréal, Quebec, Canada Oct 7, 2008 Objectively speaking:
An entry level beer that does the entry level job.
I like:
Quite a tasty, malt-oriented ale. Clean, flowery, biscuity. It would feel English indeed if you just added a juicy fruitiness somewhere and more hop confidence.
I dislike:
Not much passion involved. Relying a bit too heavily on the grainy side of things. AmEricanbrew (1747), Louisiana, USA Oct 6, 2008 Clear golden with a fleeting head. Nice aroma is grainy pale malt grist. Light/medium body. Nice semi dry flavor is grainy pale malts with a taste of honey sweetness. Crisp, clean finish. Better than a BMC. Gregis (1132), Shawnee, Kansas, USA Oct 18, 2007 Sampler at the brewpub. Pours pale yellow with very little head or lacing. The nose features grassy hops and little more. Not unpleasant. Not exciting. Light and soft, almost flat, with clean finish. The flavor reminds me of a honey ale with a lightly floral and grassy hop background. This beer was such a noticable "drop-off", from the other seven, that I’m inclined to think that they might have had a problem with their lines or something else that contributed to this beer seeming a bit "off".
