Highly drinkable. There is a very slight hop taste to go with a fair amount of malt. Lighter in color than I expected with an aroma that reminds me of a glass of iced tea. A very good "go to" beer.

Bottle--Let’s mark Hawaii off the list. The beer is a dark golden color with a hoppy aroma. The taste was hoppy too, and that’s where it ended. The brew reminds me of a long distance runner that starts off too fast and fades at the end. The finish was a bit chewy. Produce place 1.49

Cleary orange pour with a thin white head. Aroma is light citrus and spice. Quite a spicy hop bite for flavor. Medium carbonation. Back end has some lingering cardboard. Until the finish this was an above average lager.

Nothing too impressive with this one, but I’m glad I tried it to get it out of the way. My wife likes it.

Bottle, bottled 6/2/08. Aroma intriguing with lemon, wheat, citrus, grass. Flavor boring and dull, grainy pale malts. Not unpleasant, but nothing to write home about.
