Hazy goldon color. Minimal head. Nice bit of hops in the finish. Mildly sweet body with some fruit that I can't put my finger on. Bonus for being made in Cow Town.

300 beers and no end in sight. I am glad I snagged a Columbus brew for the occasion. I am not sure how to classify this beer, an American Blonde I guess. Tart bitter hops aroma with a hint of banana. Golden color with a thin white head and active carbonation. This beer retained the somewhat sharp hops favor throughout. The bitterness really had legs and kept the finish interesting. Overall the CBC has not let me down yet.

This gives me a slight stinging sensation in the back of my throat. Interesting aroma, there are definitely some fruit and spices in there, although I can’t pinpoint exactly what I am smelling. This is a little bitter tasting for me.

Had a few bottles of this after work. This brew pours a hazy light straw. The large white creamy head is fully lasting and has good lacing. The bold nose is sweet toasted malt, fruit, pepper, resin, and leathery yeast. The well balanced flavor reminds me of a Dortmunder. The rich finish is long and bitter. The light to medium body is creamy with lively carbonation. The finish feels astringent. Solid.

This is milder than I generally like in an ale. Good color, slightly sweet, no bad aftertaste.
