Apr 3, 2007 Bottle. Pours a clear golden amber body with decent head. Aroma is of sweet malt, papaya, slight citrus. Flavor is sweet with a small malty backbone. Very smooth with a slight fruity taste to it that is balanced well. Rather impressed that this came from Harpoon. Worth the dollar I paid for it.

Mar 18, 2007 Decent sized bright white head of fine bubbles. Light carbonation. Soft malty aroma with a bit of vegetal (creamed corn) and some bready malts. Color is a medium golden orange. Flavor is light and malty with more bready notes. Some crisp hops presence but generally mild overall. Some grassy notes as well. Not sure if I would classify this as an amber ale. More of a vienna style. Finishes hopy and a little bitter. Decent but not something I would seek out.

Mar 18, 2007 A little watery for my tastes, but better than any macro out there. Balanced hops and malts, somewhat buttery in flavor.

Mar 9, 2007 Bottle. Pours golden with a moderate white lingering head. Aroma is dominated by fruity yeast, slightly sweet with a bit of malt. Flavor is the same fruity yeast note, with a bit of caramel malt and slight hops in the finish. This is actually reasonably interesting for the class of beers it falls in, in my opinion.

Mar 8, 2007 The aroma is a standard lager aroma, slight hints of fruit in it. Pours a clear amber with a quickly fading white head. Nothing really special about this beer, just a decent drinkable ale.

Feb 22, 2007 Pours a reddish gold color, little head. Floral aroma with some caramel. Each sip has a bit of tongue bite. The taste is dominated at first by fruit flavors, cherry and apple, then moves on to an odd buttery aftertaste. I think it’s best to pour this one in a glass, enjoy the look of the beer, but let someone else drink it.

Jan 29, 2007 Light amber color. Sweet aroma, hints of caramel. No hops. Malt flavor with some bitterness to balance it out. Smooth finish. Easy drinking, pretty tasty but nothing to write home about.

Jan 20, 2007 While this is not my favorite from Harpoon, I find it a very drinkable beer when having more than one.
