FROTHINGSLOSH (1560), GREENSBURG, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 23, 2008 Sampled on draft at the brewery this beer poured a yellow-gold color with a small white head. The aroma was sweet, fruity and sugary. The flavor was sweet, bready, chewy and sugary with a moderate element of citrus and other ripe fruits and a tart citrusy finish. Very nice.
CharlesDarwin (1442), State College, Pennsylvania, USA Mar 14, 2008 On tap at the brewpub. Pours a middle gold, with soft white head. Light sweet grain musk for an aroma. Flavor is generally a calm, sweet lemon sugar, with light fermentation byproducts and touches of caramel. There’s a nip of fusel that throws this beer off a little. Otherwise, ends with a light gummy hop note. Mostly balanced. Could be cleaner. kramer (1956), Sunbury, Pennsylvania, USA Jan 27, 2008 On tap, at brewpub. Poured a slightly hazy yellow gold body under a small fizzy white head. The nose was fairly intense for a Golden Ale, bready malt and crisp wheat with a hint of hops. The flavor was light as well, but very clean and crisp with alot of character for the typical "entry-level" beer that usually gets recommended to the Coors Light crowd. Mouthfeel is light bodied with moderate carbonation and a clean finish. This was really pretty darn good, and a nice start to the sampler. It kind of caught me off guard a little. This was the kind of beer that would be a nice stepping stone to the BMC drinker who stops in. acrdz (4489), Boulder, Colorado, USA Jan 19, 2008 Slightly hazy golden colored body with a white head. Sweet hay and zesty lemon in the nose, with a fresh, pillowy yeast note, soft on the nose, very fresh and pleasing. Has a solid body, with some semi-sharp lemon hop and yeast flavors, and a clean, crisp pils-like malt bill. Very good.
