On a random run to the store, I picked this one up. I was pleasantly surprised by the aroma and its taste. My first thoughts after a drink were, ’fruity!’, as stated before, it has a very sweet aroma and a malty taste. I like it, good stuff.

From a 12 ounce bottle - This one pours a golden, fizzy liquid with a dense white head and a really strong malt sugar aroma. The taste is light in body and very malty, with just a touch of hops at the finish. Not a bad beer, but not that great, either. - - - - - By the way, this beer is now contract brewed in Utica, New York by the Matt X Brewery; somebody needs to change the brewer attribution.

[12oz Bottle] A golden color with a light head. A sweet aroma with a malty taste a very light hop addition. A major production brew that was good for the masses but needs more for the SNOB crowd.

Smells of sweet malt. Creamy for such a light bodied beer, sweetness and a little bitterness to balance out. Not a stand out, not surprising from a facade brewery.

Well, let’s not get crazy here. I’m a Firefighter, so the name alone get’s it over a 2.0, that said, it doesn’t do to bad. Absolutely keep it cold or it goes down like Lowenbrau. Good with Brats, Kabobs, camping, and listening to my beloved Mariners take another prostate exam.

12oz bottle poured into a 20oz “pint” glass. It formed a very thin white head that quickly diminished. The color is slightly darker than straw and clear. The aroma is of caramel malts and quite pleasant. The taste is much the same, but to be clear not sweet. It is very easy on the palate. I like this brew.

gold color. minimal white head. weak hoppy aroma. flavor is decently hopped. almost pale ale-ish. has a slight tropical(pineapple) fruit flavor and aroma. some metallic notes. i’m quite impressed with these guys for grocery store beer. just keep it cold. if not it tastes like dog food. no really.
