Nov 10, 2009 Bouteille de 22 oz achetée chez Canaan Superette (Canaan, ME). Arôme: Odeur de popcorn au beurre qui cache tout le reste. Apparence: La couleur est blonde légèrement voilée. Présence d’un mince col mousseux et d’une fine dentelle sur le verre. Saveur: Goût de céréales avec une pointe de beurre. Durée moyenne de l’arrière goût. Palette: Le corps est moyen avec une texture huileuse. Faible effervescence en bouche. Légère présence de céréales en arrière goût. (Rating #2747)

Nov 9, 2009 My Bottom Line:
This crisp Golden Ale’s citrusy fruitiness and pleasant wooden hop bitterness are bothered by overeager diacetyl, making me shy away from what would have been a very drinkable example of the style.
Further Personal Perceptions:
-A veil of foam covers the misty yellow. This is a successful presentation.
-The buttered popcorn component is present throughout. A real shame.
-The body is lean and the bubbling quite tight, making an engaging mouthfeel for sessioning.
-Malts are somewhat pleasant, but their flavors are mostly covered in that vile diacetyl.

Aug 24, 2009 Keg. Pours a burnt orange color with small white head. Nose is grainy with light honey essences. Palate is thin to medium. Flavor is lightly sweet honey with some graininess and a bit of biscuit.

Jan 7, 2009 Crisp, pilsner-like golden ale with light bitterness that could be a decent session beer.

Aromas of light hops and bread filled my nose
Flavors are nice and light great summer ale, it starts of with sweet malts and finished with a light hop bitter light in the mouthfeel good carbonation on the tongue
Very drinkable light and crisp great for a hot summer night a good session brew

Feb 3, 2008 This is the kind of beer you enjoy on a hot summer day, a beer you drink as opposed to sip. It is lite compared to most other micro brews. There is a nice balance to this beer. Give it a try and see what I’m talking about.

Jan 28, 2007 22oz bomber from Lou’s. Amber-yellow body with a half inch of white head that dissipates rather quickly. Smells caramel malty with hints of hops and diacetyl. Tastes like caramel malt with a good balance of hops (English I think) and just a hint of citrus. Flavor is a bit lighter than expected, but rather pleasing. Lighter mouthfeel makes this a very drinkable and refreshing beer. Not what I’d expect from an APA, but a really good beer IMO, and at 2.29$, for a bomber, it’s a great deal!
