12oz can -Aroma is light malts, straw and a little grassy hops. Light cloudy yellow with a small head and decent lacing. Flavor is refreshingly light. The malts and touch of hops are balanced. Palate is clean. The numbers aren’t high, but it is a great summer beer. Canned for the beach, camping or whatever else.

Found this one canned at Dan’s Liquor in Plover, Wisconsin. Hazy golden yellow pour with a nice and grainy nose with a little citrusy hoppiness, dry, yet a bit malty, with citrus and some tropical fruit. Nice crisp finish. For a golden blonde, this was pretty good.

Can poured a clear yellow with a lasting white head. Aromas of straw, light bread and light citrus. Palate was light bodied and smooth. Flavors of straw, light bread and a hint of citrus with a smooth lightly dry finish.

A friend brought a can back from a camping trip to the UP. Bright cloudy color with a nice head. Crisp and refreshing.

Poured a clear golden colour with a small frothy white head. Aroma is of light roasted malts, soft hops and slightly grass. Taste is rather boring, but clean, crisp and filling.
