This beer rocks. Probably the best "lawnmower beer" I’ve tasted. The aroma is very faint, but is moderately malty and just slightly hoppy. I also detected a pad of butter in the essence. It has a clear, flat, medium golden hue with a small, frothy, white, fully diminishing head and fair lacing. The flavor starts lightly on the bitter side and then is moderately malty and lightly bitter on the back side. Short finish. Medium bodied with a dry, lively mouthfeel. I really enjoyed this beer. It’s a cream ale.

Draught pint at Vista on 3/24/07
Large white head is well-retained, with sparkling carbonation in the clear, sunny-yellow beer. Minimal lacing.
Crisp, aromatic malts in the nose do most of the work, while there is just a hint of peachy fruit ester, very reserved, in the background. It works well as a balance to the grainy maltiness. Softer ale yeast notes provide light minerals and just a touch of dough. Hops are soft and floral, wouldnt have guessed sterling, but something like very fresh, liberal EKG (sterling is close, I guess). Not as much citrus as I’d expect from Sterling (they usually give a nice non-bitter, lemon-lime note). Importantly, no flaws of any kind with a generally high aroma strength.
Crisp, kolsch-like malts have a touch of paperiness to them, but are more or less quite pleasingly crisp. Dry grains, with a hint of honey and just a touch of bitterness. Some light nectarine/peach esters and a very well-carbonated, yet not sharp mouthfeel that was quite quenching. Fruitiness grows as the beer warms, as does the hop flavor. Quite pleasant, and maybe just a bit more softness on the palate from some different malts (the vienna gives it too much of a toasty/bready edge) would be beneficial. Nice one.

Plastic bottle w/ twist off cap. Pours a nice golden color w/ a shallow froth. Head retention is weak and possesses only a fine ring of residual lacing. Aromas of malts w/ slight biscuiting. Medium nectar w/ minimal effers that only show at mid palate. Mildly flavored w/ a moderate malt backbone. A really tasty biscuit nuance shows up early and stays through to the finish. The finish is bittered perfectly w/ an asprin twitch that digs in and leaves a numbing sensation. Not a bad session brew at all and I can’t tell it came from a plastic bottle. Take this one to the beach.

The beer emerges from the 12-ounce brown plastic bottle with the twist off cap a clear gold, the head substantial, creamy white that fades leaving a fine curtain of lace. Nose has a nice malt sweetness, fresh and clean to the senses; start is somewhat sweet, a bit of bitterness at the back with the feel to the palate light. Finish has a customary acidity, the hops mild in their spiciness, aftertaste dry, seems like a good candidate for a session beer.

Yellow color with smallish head. Smelled like light oranges. Flavor had a sweet maltiness to itwith an explosive carbonation.
