Bottle. Poured a clear golden body with nice head. Aroma is fruity, bready. Flavor is the same with light hops. Smooth. Good beer to have after mowing the yard.

Pours a golden honey color with a small white head. Aroma is hops and bread. Moderate carbonation. The most prominent aspect of this beer is the dry bitter aftertaste that is located at the very back of the throat. Flavor is somewhat like a classic Kolsch but is also unique to the style. The effervescent feel actually works against the flavors. A disappointing beer from Flying Dog.

A bottle from a Christmas variety pack. It poured a clear golden yellow with little or no head. Not much aroma to speak of. There were some carbination bubbles rising in the glass. There was a little citrus flavor and a very mild hop flavor, but not much flavor at all

From bottle : Pours very light clear gold color, with a little bittey half finger of white fizzy head that dies hard. Not a fan of the smell at all, mainly corn and alcohol. Dry, bitter taste of corn and wheat. Palate is thin to medium, with a bitter end that isnt enjoyable. Not very good.

Appearance is very light in color, and the head is very thin almost non-existant without a lace. Not much for flavor it beats the Football Beer Brewers, but not by much

Medium gold brew with no head. It looks like a lager and has a floral, malty aroma. Dry, mildly bitter taste, a little like an IPA but light on the hops. Fizzy and not too much character. Not much to get excited about here - a decent bar brew or accompaniment to a football game. A little disappointing.

Bad, bad, bad. Flying dog beer sucks. There’s nothing her in this ale to lend itself to repeat drinking.

Pours a clear golden color with small white head. Smooth and easy drinking but nothing special here. Honestly not very different than a pale lager to me.
