Golden. Taste is bitter. Nothing really stands out in this brew. But I do give them props for trying an Australian style beer.

a touch darker than the kolsch... pale golden with a tiny bit of sluggish lacing. sweet grainy aroma with hints of diacetyl. the palate is a touch sweet with some grassiness, grain and a slightly bittered finish. diacetyl doesn’t really show up here oddly. light bodied, crisp, meh. 5/3/5/3/9/2.5

Draft at the brewpub. Australian-style Lager. Mildly sweet, with a touch of nuttiness. Nothing extraordinary, relatively balanced. A little sourness in the finish. Decent session beer, nothing more.

Golden yellow color with no head. Minimal aroma of some hops and malts. Tastes of malts with some hops. Nothing impressive, but not revolting either.

On tap @ the Brewpub-Moderate golden color w/a slight white head. Had a floral nose to it. Another pretty average brew at this brewpub, some hops, some grain, and again, some interest, but not much. Thin watery mouthfeel w/a weak, stale finish.

Dark gold, creamy white head. Light buttery flroal nose up front that fades into a dreid fruit and earth finish. Similar flavor with just a touch of peppery hops, and hints of earthy nutiness added to the mix. Nicely balanced as it seem pretty much like a light pils of sorts. Light bodied, light carbonation, soft bitter finish. Might be good with some hot wings, but truly not my thing...
