12 oz bottle. Pours gold with a soft fizzy head. Smells of subtle hops, sweet malt, and somewhat of a very mild seasoning. Tastes of corn and grainy malt, grassy hops, and very faint corriander and/or cinnamin, but very faintly as it warms. Smooth body and nice drinkability.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a hazy bright golden color with a large yellow-white head. The aroma was sour, tangy, yeasty and slightly corny. The flavor was sour, tangy, yeasty and corny with a short tangy finish. I should also note that I tried the draft and found it to be absolutely disgusting. Ok.

clear gold color, quickly dissipating white head, not much lace. very airy aroma of malt and grain. corn syrupy flavor with hints of sweet malt, honey and grain. medium bodied, oily mouth feel, dry finish. pretty forgettable; no need to repeat unless you buy a six pack. single bottle purchase from binny’s orland park.

Clear gold color with a fleeting white head. Mild sweet pale malt aroma. Light/medium body. Mild flavor is lightly sweet honey pale malts with some corn syrup. Not really bad just bland.

Clear golden color with a thin white head. Pleasant aroma, mildly sweet with a hint of spices, weak though. Ginger-ale like flavor and feel. Vanilla and spices. Crisp finish with a slight bite and frothiness.

Smells like a cream ale with some mild malts and peppery hops. Yellow-copper in color, good sized white head and small strands of lacing. Medium to light bodied, balanced and non-offensive. Nutty bread with a spicy grassy hop profile. Overall the flavor is mild, but pleasant.

Pours a medium golden with a small white head for a covering. Aroma of sweetness and grains. Taste is sweet and honey like with some hops thrown in. This light bodied brew is not bad.
