Skunk smell is fairly present. Taste is less bitter than expected but still leaves you unsatisfied.

Very light head, nice hoppy aroma. Typical golden appearance. Surprisingly light in taste. Over all, not bad.

330ml bottle. Nice surprise this was as I wasn’t expecting much. Straw gold in colour and clear in appearance. Foamy white head that leaves good lacing on the glass. Mild carbonation and flavour with an aroma of barley and malt.

Bottle from Total Wine. Golden pour with a medium white head. A very bready and yesty nose with some earthy notes. Flavor is all malt, a bit sweet and finishes with a very slight hit of hops.

Bottle. Pours a golden color with a two finger white head. No lacing on the side of the glass. Aroma is bread, nuts, and grass. Flavor is malts and a light bitter aftertaste. Very smooth on the palate. Decent beer

Pours golden with a grainy light malt aroma. Flavor is sweet malt with a light hop bitterness in the finish.

Bottle. It pours a clear, almost golden body under a fingerthick off-white head. Some dms in the aroma, mostly grainy, with pale malts and some citrus. There’s a touch of lim in the mouth, some dms and bitterness, but mostly it’s grains. Medium body. It finishes on the malty side, but some bitterness shows up. An easy to drink beer, but dead boring, and to be honest, not particularly good. (081206)
