Nov 30, 2007 this is the most basic, standard beer southern tier brews, IMO. it’s only sold (supposedly) in chautauqua county, NY. it’s a nice brew, still beats the hell out of any big name beers, but it’s not as nice as southern tier’s other offerings. pours golden amber with a white head. aroma is light and malty, smells like a flowery lager, really. taste is malt with a smidge of hops, very light. mid-light body that finishes clean. a great beer if you don’t want to buy the mass-marketed piss that it shares the shelf with.

Jul 19, 2008 Draft at the Southern Tier Brewpub (The Empty Pint). Poured a clear a light golden amber with a bit of a fizzy white head. Aroma is light, crisp malt. Taste is clean and light - bit of grainy, slightly biscuity malt with a very light grassy hop bitterness. Finish is clean, not much lingering flavor to speak of. Decent session beer.

Jul 8, 2008 Pours a light amber with a fizzy white head. Has the aroma of citrus malts, caramel and hops. The flavor is of mostly grain with a hint of caramel, and fruit. This brew is made only a few miles from where I live in ole Jamestown. I’m glad to have tried it.

Nov 2, 2009 Bottle. Bright golden yellow pour. Hazy. Nose almost smells like a wheat. Not much hops in the scent. Basically goes down crisp, like a slightly better version of a mass-produced American lager. I think this would be better on a hot summer day.

Nov 16, 2007 22 oz. bottle my mother-in-law brought back from NY - Pours a very slighlty hazy light golden color with a one and a half finger thick white head. Very light, tiny bubbled carbonation. No lacing to speak of. Aroma is soapy with light grain and light esters. Flavor is lightly sweetened grain and light fruity esters. Light to medium body. Nothing fancy, but worth a try. Not sure if I want to drink the whole bottle.

May 9, 2007 On tap @ Coles Buffalo NY a while ago. Was told this was made for the Southern Tier of NY & North West PA to combat Yeungling. Nothing real special like Yeungling. Caramely malty amber. Nothing great but nothing bad. I think thay accomplished their goal
