Pours a clear copper with a thin off-white head. Aroma is sweet malts. Flavor is similar with lots of caramel malt and just a hint of grassy hops. The flavor is good, but the sweetness is almost cloying (tastes a bit like circus peanuts). Moderate mouthfeel. Very drinkable.

Sampler @ 4 Queens, Vegas. Pours copper, thin white head. Aroma is hoppy, cascade, pine hops, light malty notes. Taste, hop profile giving the beer some pine mouthfeel with light malty notes.

Las Vegas, Nevada - Golden Nugget on Draft. This was a good change from all the bottle beer on the casino floor. Other then the the better blend, nothing really special about this beer.

Sample at the brewpub. Pours a clear amber color with a thin and foamy off-white head that dissipates quickly. Spotty lacing on the glass. Mild malt aroma with a touch of hops. Medium, smooth body with a weak malt and hops flavor along with a hint of fruit. The finish is sweet with a short-lived malt aftertaste. Overall there is nothing noteworthy about this beer.

Had on tap at the 4 Queens in Vegas. Poured to a light copper color with medium thick off-white head that hung around through mid-glass and left a little lacing. Aroma and taste were both muted, though they were no doubt affected by the numerous cigars I smoked up to that point. Although nothing great stood out with this beer, Iit was actually nice and smooth, with a decent finish, and one that I might enjoy much more under different circumstances.
