Commercial Description:
Brewed with flaked barley and the finest Wisconsin malts. We even give a nod to our farmers with a little hint of corn. Naturally cloudy we allow the yeast to remain in the bottle to enhance fullness of flavors, which can not be duplicated otherwise. Expect this Ale to be fun, fruity and satisfying.

A cloudy beer. Interesting flavor and aroma--some hints of fruit. A smooth and refreshing beer. I sought this out on advice of a friend and it wasn’t quite the "beer nirvana" I was expecting, but not bad, not bad at all!

Pours a relatively clearish yellow color. Slightly hazy though with minimal head and little retention. The aroma is of light citrus, corn, and barley. Nothing too strong. The flavor is interesting in a way. It is like a lager only smoother at the nose but with a slight hop bite near the finish. It is great beer after a hard summer day’s work but no as impressive as others in the New Glarus line up.

A new favorite of mine. Finally got to try this one when I was in Green Bay for a few days. Semi cloudy in appearance with a foamy white head. Nice sweet aroma with notes of malt and maybe apple. Smooth, sweet, and refreshing! Extremely easy to drink with malty sweetness and fruity flavors abound. A superb beer in my opinion. Why isn’t it available in Illinois?

On tap pours light golden with a thin white head. Has little aroma. Taste is somewhat light with a sweetness not from the caramel malt. Its from something else. Has a crisp finish. Overall a light water-like beer that goes down nice on a hot summer day.

Bottle poured to glass. Yellow brew with a slight haze from being botlle conditioned. Small white head. Sweet and sour aroma much like straw and sweat. A semi-sweet tasting beer and watery on the palate. A6 A3 F7 P3 O12 ReRate 2-5-2009 Bottle poured to glass. Straw yellow brew with a rocky white head. Slight haze to brew. Smells fo toasted malt and mild bitters. Smooth, Creamy mouthfeel with soft carbs on sides of the tounge. Excellent lacing on glass.

pretty solid ale. definitely very easy to drink ad fairly light bodied with some sweetness and a touch of bitter. but it seriously does look like pee in your glass

Got this when a friend visited Wisconsin and bought a mixed pack. A very drinkable beer. Good malt/hop balance. Not enough flavor for my liking though. Very pale yellow color. Reminded me of pee. Not the best in the world, but certainly not the worst.
