12 oz. bottle via trade with j12601 - Pours a clear light golden color with a one and a quarter finger thick white head. Very little lacing. Aroma is grain, soap, and grassy hops. Flavor is light grain and herbal hops. Medium body. A nice blonde. Thanks Jay.

had one of these at a family gathering. what can i say, it’s a very light beer. no body at all. off golden color with a white head. i didn’t get much of a discernible taste out of it. it went okay with meat, but with no taste, that is not saying much. i’d never buy it.

bottle: smells definitely lagery, which is a bit odd. That is to say, yeast and grain. Taste is a bit better... thin and light, but a little flat definitely a refreshing brew. The color is a pale yellow and white head.

Bottle provided by a co-worker who recently picked this up in NY. Has an odd lactic sour note in the nose with a hint of stale grain. The flavor is pretty simple; pale grains, light lemon and some light hay/grassiness. Medium light body with moderate carbonation. Ok for a quick drinking beer but nothing you would ever want to come back to again.

Cloudy, golden, sunny yellow. Minor snow white head. Lots of carbonation. Nice golden look. The smell is German lagerish malt. Very bitter; deep, rich and heavily roasted grains. Not a wimpy aroma. The taste is bitter as hell like the German/amberish malts of a Heineken. But also has an English, bready base. Hint of ringwoody (okay fine, chlorine) sourness. The feel is like a real English ale, or a cream ale. Adds the perfect amount of substance. It’s a damn good, thick golden ale.

12 oz bottle via Mys Swap 4.0 (thanksj12601). Pours a hazy amber/gold with a fluffy white head. Nose is spicy yeast. Taste is grainy... bread, hay, grass and a little spice. Body and thin and finish is dry, is a bit watery. Some ash in the aftertaste. An almost ok beer if not for the finish/aftertaste.

on tap–pours a white head and gold color. Aroma is sweet grain, some hops. Taste is sweet grain-towards caramel, secondary earthy hops.
