Pours a four finger white head that fades quickly to a thin layer leaving some lace. Crystal clear, very pale amber color. Light-medium carbonation and light-medium bodied. Musty hoppy nose. Flavor is hay, honey and hints of hops. Good lawn mower beer. $1.75 for a 12oz bottle from Beverage Warehouse Winooski, VT. Bottled Apr 29, 09.

Smells of burned popcorn kernels and cow shit. Clear yellow, no head. Rice water with a lemon twist. Rarefied and gross. Grassy finish. A good slogan for this beer would be "Nothing ventured, nothing gained", which applies equally well to both brewer and buyer. Gross!

Very clear yellow with a white head. Aroma of sweet malt. Taste is the same with a light hop bitterness at the end. Ease to drink, light body, great for a hot day.

Poured a crystal clear dark yellow with a nice bright white head. There was a mild citrus aroma and some makt earthiness too. There was good carbonation and a good amount of carbonation bubbles rising in the glass. The taste was crisp & clean with a light lemony citrus flavor, slightly dry. There was a small hint of a hop bit towards the finish, but very faint. The head left a light amount of lacing. This beer was easy drinking and refreshing.

Bottled on April 21, 2009. Pours a very bright yellow with a good head. The aroma is white corn and hay, but pretty clean. Low levels of Eruopean hops are apparent. The palate is light, not too light, just right for a yellow lager. This is crisp and clean with no sour or bad vegetation in the flavor. This is refreshing and palatable. It’s good for those rare occassions I want one light lager.

Appearance: Pours a clear yellow gold, with a touch of cloudiness. Even with an aggressive pour, I was unable to get any sort of head to form. Aroma: Sweet summer corn, dry malts, and a little bit of bitter hop. Taste: Honey sweetness, light, dry buscuity malt, bitter, metallic hops, with a fruity, light hoppy finish. Mouthfeel: Full bodied, crisp. Overall: Probably one of the first craft lagers I have ever had. Has a unique flavor compared to other pale lagers, very refreshing and satisfying.

Easy easy drinking. almost zero head poured, but tons of tiny happy bubbles kept a-commin. A lightly fizzy dirty straw colour with that was slightly hopped - nice quiet bitterness and prominent sweet cirtusy flavour and somewhat creamy. Not a lot in the aroma category and i had a hard time nailing down that part of it. Once again, I’d never say no to Kona Brews cause they go down really fine.
