12 oz bottle from local Food Lion. Aroma of pale malts with some grainyness. Slightly cloudy golden with small white head. Pale malts with a touch of caramel malts and some spicey hop notes. Medium creamy body with fizzy carbonation. Finish is clean with a nice spicey hop bite. Not bad at all.

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.

Bottle, bottled 6/2/08. Pours a light clear orange with a small white head. Aroma of wheat and some faint melon rind. Flavor is also quite wheaty with some cardboard and bittery hops in the finish. Kind of flavorless. Not bad for a lager though.

Pours a deep yellow with thin white head. Mild aroma of sweet malts and citrus hops. Flavor was sweet malts, dough, grains and hop bite at the finish. I liked the balance of the smooth texture and the nice lemony hop bite at the end. A nice summer session beer. It may seem even tastier because I was drinking this on the beach at the Jersey shore while watching a bunch of surfers.

Bottle. Pours a straw yellow with a decent white head. Head disappears quick. A lot of malts and water. Taste is kind of sweet but not too bad. Citrus and lemon are also present.
