Had this one on draught as part of the sampler at the brewpub in Ludington, Michigan. Clear, medium brown pour with a hazy white head, very mild and malty, like the English Mild very sessionable. Good.

Oct 10, 2007 Tap: Clean golden hue with a fading lace and some spotty lace. The aroma has notes of grassy and floral hops, apple and light spice esters, and a biscuity note. The taste starts with a twangy citric and herbal hop character with a light bready background. Mild hop spice finish. The mouth feel is refreshing and lively. Nicely balanced, pretty accurate for the style, enjoyable surprise.

Jul 13, 2007 On tap. Pours a medium brown color with a very thin beige head. Aroma is light toast, bread, caramel. Flavor is toast, malt, light hops. Palate is medium-light bodied, mildly carbonated, finishes on the sweet side. Nothing to write home about but drinkable.

May 29, 2007 On tap at the brewery. I was not a fan of this one at all. Medium brown body, thin buff head. Light, grassy nose with subtle breads and toast. Thin, wispy malt body delivered little malt depth, and finished with a shot of grassy, bitter hops. Poorly balanced. There was really nothing here to grip.

Sep 6, 2005 Almost fruity aroma with some slight toffee. Fruity, toffee, caramel grassy (hallertau?) hops in the finish. Sweet, no bitterness. Amber color without a head. Light body, crisp, watery and refreshing.
