Pale amber colour with thin off-white head. Some caramel and citrus but also ginger in aroma. Fruity tea-like flavour with some bitterness. Quite light and almost no carbonation. Very easy to drink but it feels more like ice tea than ale. 6% couldn’t be noticed. j12601 (1151), Poughkeepsie, New York, USA Aug 31, 2009
On tap at Barcade. Pours a clear golden amber with a thin white. head. Light malt, mostly empty. Medium, light malt, light citrus. Finishes with a slight dry bitterness.
williamherbert (461), Syracuse, New York, USA Aug 31, 2009 The appearance is beautiful cloudy copper. Minimal head, butg the translucent color is gorgeous. With more head, this would be a 5.0.
The aroma is bitter, flowery German hops on top. Roasted barley underneath. Grainy but with lemon and earthy tones. Very strong, very inviting.
The taste is earthy, grainy malts foremost. Pilsnerish/German hops floating above. Hint of perfumes, but more bitter and with a bite on the swallow. Complex; lots of flavors to admire here.
Medium bodied feel and creamy but also refreshing. Spring-y! Lots of bitter hops, earthy malts and a citrusy respite. A heck of a nice spring-friendly beer. TheBeerGod (3143), Newport News, Virginia, USA Aug 21, 2009 Bottle. Hazy golden blonde body. Spotty foam on the surface. Aroma is grainy and semi-sweet with light lemon. Taste is more grains, lemony tartness, Euro hops, grass and sweet malt. Body is light and almost uncarbonated. Slick feel on the palate. Ends with stronger lemon and yeast notes, more grass and Euro hops, light grains and soft biscuit notes.
