May 7, 2008 Aroma: Yeasty, like rising bread, with a smooth, sweet malt aroma. Corn is also detectable. Subtle marzipan/amaretto tones match beautifully with an orange-pineapple citric quality. A quiet but complex nose.
Appearance: A ruddy orange color, similar to dried apricots. Head is white and fizzy; retention is poor to mediocre.
Flavor: Not as appealing as the smell. There is a prominent acidic spiciness that I don’t care for, similar to a white onion. Other than that, though, the beer is pretty good. Smooth malts, a touch of corn flakes, and of course, that unfiltered yeast round out the flavor, with a corny sweet finish that gradually turns dry and sour.
Palate: Mostly rough and prickly on the palate, but there is a crispness to it that helps offset the beer’s sweetness.
Overall: This beer is really popular in Wisconsin, and it’s good, but not as good as everyone hyped it up to be. I’m a little disappointed but I still think this is a fine beer.

May 2, 2008 Hazy cloudy straw yellow with a thin white head. Aroma is of sweet malts, some corn. Smooth and creamy, tastes of sweet malts. Finishes a little bad, though an okay beer considering it’s a micro for the masses.

Apr 29, 2008 Pours a fairly clear gold. Little aroma of some sweet malt. Flavor is light with a little hop and a little sweet malt. Very drinkable, but nothing spectacular.

Apr 27, 2008 Golden color, sligtly cloudy. Not a real distinct aroma and the after taste is nonexistant. It is a well crafted beer however it isn’t something I would be thrilled about.

Apr 27, 2008 BOTTLE! this beer is very light and easy to drink. it has a bit of fruity taste. as said in the commercial description you can feel the hint of corn on the tongue in the after taste.

Apr 21, 2008 Cloudy yellow/gold, white head. nose is lemony, some wheaty & hay malt, spicy/herbal hops hanging out that in no way dominate. Flavor is wheaty malt, a bit of soda-like sweetness for a second. Well balanced hay-like finish. I haven’t had many cream ales but I could see this being a nice session beer.
