Pours a clear gold - typical beer color. Minimal head with some lacing. Nose is slightly sweet with little else to it. Flavor comes and goes just as quick. Very little to it. Starts off somewhat sweet and retreats quickly. I guess it saw a better tire down the road to chase. Feel is a little above standard with some extra bubbles. Drinkable, but I don’t know why you’d really want to.

Bottle. Everyone in the group agreed that this beer was just so average. The 2.5 rating is perfect to describe it - more flavor and charactar than your mass market beer but not enough to make it memorable.

One of those ones I thought I had rated - bottle thanks to my friend Big Red. Golden yellow, good sized white head. Mild hops and light malt in aroma. Good golden ale taste - light malt, with a good amount of bitterness. Light mouthfeel - not fluffy or syrupy, somewhere in between. A good refreshing simple beer.

clear golden with lots of carbonation forming a whispy white head, sweet candy corn aroma and flavor, only the slightest hint of bitterness in the finish, good for what it is

Smells weakly of sweet malts. Pours a very weak straw color with a very thin head. Taste is very light and bland, leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Not something I’m going to be looking for any time soon.

Bottle from Hi-Time Wine. Pours a medium golden color with a medium sized foamy head. Dry and dusty aroma. Super sweet and grainy. Some bready qualities. Not too exciting.

Pours a clear yellow with a quickly disolving head. Aroma of nothing. Flavour is lacking in complexity in every sense of the word. Really nothing to say about this beer, the worst of the Flying Dogs so far.
