From the 22 ounce bottle. Pours gold with thin white head. Light aroma, just a little bit of hops. Bitter flavor from the hops, which not as much balance for the malt as I would have thought. Kind of boring overall though.

Bottle. Pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma of citrus hops and sweet malt. Taste is the same as aroma. Medium mouthfeel with a mild to moderate amount of bitterness and a crisp finish. Good.

Bottle, courtesy Tony at Oldsmar Tap House. Pours a hazy copper color, with a thick white head and decent lacing. Fruity malt esters, some caramel and vanilla, distant chocolate. Flavor is very malty, citrus, caramel, and a ton of bitter hops in the finish. Very balanced. Easy to drink, unique. A good summer beer.

22oz bottle. Cool label. Hazy orange pour. Light grain is the most noticeable thing in the aroma along with a little hop spice. Flavor is spicy with citrus hops, just a touch of malt that makes a week attempt at balance and lastly what I would call a bubblegum flavor. It’s not bad, it’s just nothing I’ll go looking for. Dry finish on a medium body.

Pours clear golden with white head. Grassy aroma. Flavor is slightly bitter and malty with some alcohol and a metallic taste. Body is pretty full for a lager. Moderate carbonation. An OK lager.

Light grainy coriander aroma. Hazy golden color with a small airy head. Light malt start quickly developing a strong hop bitterness that lasts long into the finish. I would put this in the American imperial pilsner class.

Pours a dark golden amber with a thin white head. Aroma is light grassy hop, grainy pale malt. Flavour is full bodied toasty malt, some earthy-grassy hop combinations. Slight alc sourness in the finish. A good strong lager with only minor flaws.
