| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Jul 26, 2008 Poured golden. Aroma - light grainy. Taste - sweet, floral hops with a touch of citrus. Very pleasant actually. I’m not a big fan of pale lagers, but New Glarus has done better than most with this style.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jul 21, 2008 This beer pours a pronounced sparkling gold. Small head but it laces all over the glass.
Smells like cut grass, hay, lemon zest; very summery. Sweetness is obvious. A bit like white wine.
Taste is clean and a bit watery but refreshing. I think that’s the angle. This mops the floor with any other macro in taste but it’s very similar at the same time.
Mouthfeel is light and watery. So what? That doesn’t mean it’s a bad beer.
Drinkability is off the charts. durhambeer (1210), Durham, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 14, 2008 Bottle thanks to James. Clear yellow pour without a significant head. The beer is what it is: a very drinkable lager. Good that way. 37steel (186), St. Charles, Illinois, USA
| 1.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Jul 9, 2008 12 oz bottle. Clear golden yellow with a thin white head. Very little floral aroma. Not much taste - a hint of corn. Not much to this beer. It is what Dan wanted. badbeer (433), Iowa, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 5, 2008 Crystal clear golden color with a quickly dissipating white head, leaving no lacing. Smell is pretty faint, flowery and a touch of honey. Taste is of honey and corn, paired with the same soft flowery notes perceived in the smell. I don’t think it could get much better for the style. Medium carbonation with light/medium body. Great to drink, a simple beer, but I enjoyed it.
