from Amstein - slightly hazy golden blond colour with a poor head retention; subtle flowery hoppiness with notes of honey; decent malt body and a subtle carbonation; slightly oily with some sweetness; low bitterness; quite long almondy finish

Clear pale golden body with white head that didn’t last. Smooth and crisp with light in body, pear and tropical fruit. Quite enjoyed this despite the low ratings.

Almost in the realm of a macro. Very light. Refreshing? Not something I want to drink multiples of. A little off bitterness, weak.

Not impressive...at all. Metallic/rubbery taste. Enjoyed most other offerings from Flying Dog but this is pretty weak. Purchased a variety pack and is by far the least likable.

On draught at Rattle N Hum (NYC): This one just doesn’t do it for me. Not much of a taste of anything- bland at best. Smells funky. #008 on 14062009, DG.

Poured yellow with white head. I couldn’t really get anything out of the aroma. Some sweet malt and hops but thats it. Watery taste with some hops. Sweeter finish. Average

The nose is not very noticeable. Pale gold color with an thin quickly dissipating head. Smooth intro with a light somewhat watery mouthfeel that leads to a fairly hoppy finish. Lightly carbonated. Not their best offering.
