cathcacr (504), Portland, Oregon, USA Jul 11, 2008 Hmmm, doesn’t even really pass all that well for a light golden/blonde summer ale. Nothing of distinction about it. A thoroughly average experience.
scrizzz (452), kirkland, Washington, USA Jul 1, 2008 great initial impression for a style that tends to have little character. golden color with depth and a slight haze suggests quality and complexity. well rounded aroma between the pale malt and sunny hops. goodness. there’s weight and balance throughout with notes of lemon, wheat/hay, and an underlying sweetness that compliments and never overpowers. Great. gunnfryd (2659), Kristiansand, Norway Jun 28, 2008 Bottle. Dark golden colour with an off-white head. Aroma is citrus, hop, malt. Flavour is malt, sweet, hop, caramel. Pleasent easy drinkable beer. yngwie (3322), Kristiansand, Norway Jun 28, 2008 Bottle. A clear, quite dark golden beer with a small off-white head. There’s some cooked vegetables in the aroma, a decent amount of malt, and lots of hops showing up after a few seconds, releasing pine, resin and peach. The flavor is malty-sweet, with some caramel and a good, but not overpowering, hoppyness and bitterness. Medium to full body. Quite short finish with malt and hops blending nicely. Really easy to drink, and quenching. (080509) leaparsons (3798), Leicester, Leicestershire, England Jun 27, 2008 Bottle. Beers of the World Live, NEC. Golden with a small head. Aromas are light caramel with citrus and yeast. Some floral notes. Flavours are biscuit malts with dry citrus. A bit dull.
