Commercial Description:
A light colored version of the Alt Beer. This beer uses an ale type yeast at lager-like temperatures. What results is a smooth, almost fruity beer that is pleasing to the palate. A small amount of Wheat malt is used to give extra body to this otherwise "light" beer. Hallertau hops balance the malt but impart no hop aroma. O.G. 1.048

Yellow, with chill haze. Aroma is quite fruity (lemon, apricot, faint banana) - especially considering it was made with a lager yeast. There were also some faint husky notes. Light body. Smooth underlying maltiness at first - pity this didn't carry through to the finish, where it would really have done some good. The finish did have a hint of hallertau. Good attempt, though, considering there were a couple of deviations from tradition.

On tap at the Dragonmead Brew Pub. Poured a light to medium and hazy yellow color with a smaller sized white head. Aromas of some grassines, citrus, and bread. Tastes of fhte same grassiness, a little fruity and bready. Lighter all the way around.

Sampled at the Michigan Brewers Fest. Unfiltered pale solid gold, with a lasting touch of head and hints of lace even in the crappy plastic tasting "glass"....grassy nose with hints of vanilla and nice Munich malts...solid, well-balanced blend of well-mashed malt, grassy herbal bitterness with the hops slightly pronounced at the finish. Quite solid.

Bready, herbal nose is pleasantly inviting. Hazy golden yellow body is topped with a thin white head that lasts well and leaves some lacing. Bready malts with herbal, spicy hop flavour and decent finishing bitterness. Light-medium body with moderate carbonation. Sampled at the Michigan Brewers Guild Summer Beer Festival 2005.

At MBG Summer fest; Copper hue with small fizzy head. Apple, lemon, wheat, and some minor spice on the nose. Tangy and crisp, light-bodied, refreshing, good summer session beer.

MIBG Fest: Pale and slightly hazy orange-gold colour. Aroma is fresh, fruity and malty. Body is light and crisp. Flavour is pleasant, with malt notes of the top and hints of citrus in the finish.

Cloudy, pale body with white head. The aroma is dough, light citrus and floral. The flavor is fairly dry, floral, bread and biscuity malts. Medium/light body is moderately carbonated with a bitter, citrusy end. Nice.

Draft. Very pale yellow color. Damn near clear. Minimal head. Aroma is fruitish, apples are brought to mind. Very light beer. Would make a session brew.
