I had this brew at the Sioux Falls SD location. It was crisp and refreshing but it wasn’t what I would go to a brew pub for. Yellow with not much of a head.

Tap at brewpub, Wichita, KS. Pours pale yellow. Solid and slightly cloudy. Faint floral honey in the nose. Flavor is light, sweet hops with tangy malt. Watery on the tongue. For a light beer, this is pretty tasty.

The pour did not have much head, but it had decent lacing. This beer is a nice refreshing beer, however, it lacked flavor.

On tap at the Ft. Wayne Indiana pub. Pale gold color with a thin white head. Light sweet nose, but not much of one. Grainy malts with some citrus notes. Very clean and light beer and easy to drink. Not very interesting, but solid for a brewpub’s lightest offereing.

Had at their St Cloud Mn location. Very pale appearance, light white head with good lacing. Strong finish. Decent light hoppy flavor for a light beer from a brewpub.

My first of four lackluster beers from Granite City’s new Missouri location. Pours light in color with a minor head. The aroma has light pale malt and nothing else. The body is very think with crisp carbonation. The taste has pale malt, corn, light spicy hops and a good deal of wateriness. Fair at best.
