Orangey brown, no head. Haoney graham cracker smell. mellow, rich mouthfeel, fruity flavors and moderately dry finish. Thanks, Secret Santa!

light, very light. Had a nice amber appearance other than that it beer was entirely flat. It lacked a consitant hop taste and had almost no aftertaste.

Very hoppy ale. Got it as part of a beer club. Pretty good. Deep Orange in color. Pretty good. I enjoyed it.

Nothing to complain about with the aroma, but nothing there either. Loogs good, clear and golden. Tastes plain and boring, with kind of a strange slight flavor. Almost astringent. There is nothing to it.

Nice, refreshing beer. Would be very good on a hot day!! It's obvious that high quality ingredients are used... This would be a good intro beer for someone used to macro's like Bud and MGD...

Gold. Not much smell. Taste is light, slightly malty and has a hint of corn. This beer is a macro-brew at a micro price. Worst of the Buzzard's Bay brews, but better than the mainstream.

uh, yellow color...yellow odor...yellow taste...yellow aftertaste. yellow. i almost said "golden" but golden would imply gold which would imply that it had some sort of value. this does not. i am ashamed to have lived the vast majority of my life in Massachusetts, where this beer was made. on the plus side i lived on the other side of the state and Westport, MA, where this was brewed, is so close to Rhode Island that it shouldn't be condsidered from Mass. at least there's a very nice winery in Westport, MA (the town doesn't have to be embarrassed too much).

Clear gold (there's a surprise), mild malty aroma, flora hoppiness. Sweet, full bodied, honey malt flavours, fresh tasting, low bitterness, low carbonation, kind of English in it's execution.
