Joe Owades had his hands in this recipe along with Rhonda Kallman. When I heard they were making this beer several years ago I wanted to try it, but never saw it until a friend brought me a sample. Before I tried this beer my favorite light beer was Grant’s Celtic Ale (or mild I make myself) .. after I tried this beer that hasn’t changed. Just a tad of sweet toffee character on top of a light lager. I wish they made this as an ale to make a few flavors. Disappointing.

12 oz bottle while haning out in the Desert. Very interesting name. I love the idea. And that’s about all I loved about it.

Trader Joe’s pickup. Pale fizzy yellow, but did manage a decent and lasting head. Aroma frankly quite skunky. Faint grain present. Cooked vegetable note fades slowly as well. Flavor is mostly grainy, very faint hay hops, and then a very light and watery finish. Not totally awful for the style.

Straw color with a diminishing somewhat fizzy looking white head. Cooked green vegetable aromas, some chard and peas come to mind. some grains and a touch of alcohol is also caught. At least it is faint enough so not to be that offensive. Some light sugary sweetness. Not malty more like powdered sugar with a touch of dried flowers and grass. Very vapid and irritatingly insipid.

Bottle from Trader Joes; Nose of hay and grain; gold with a pale orange hue and a small white head; flavor is sweet corn, and a hint of hops.

This had a light head.The aroma first reminded me of dog piss.Getting rast the aroma I tasted a grassy,slightly acidic,yeasty,maybe cereal beer.Light body with slightly stickyness to it.I guess if you like Coronas this will be good for you.Kind of sucky beer.Not for micro-brew people.

Grainy, sweet malt, and mild fruit aroma, but all very faint. Pale golden with a thin head. Balanced, but carbonated and grainy. Dry finish.

Nice nose. Resembles Newcastle Brown. Brassy golden color with a diminishing white head. A bit fizzy. Thin to medium bodied. Sort of a caramelly flavor, but not too sweet. The finish is balanced caramel and bitter. Still makes me think a bit of Newcastle Brown - very, very, light (and lagery) version.
