12oz bottle. Clear pure gold color with small white head. Sweet and also grainy malt aroma. Very light tasting beer. The flavors are mild with no off flavors of any kind. Silky smooth maltiness intermingles with noble hop flavor. The finish has a mild lingering hop bitterness. A good refreshing beer.

Golden with a small white head. Leathery, malty aroma. The taste begins slightly metallic, becomes straw, and ends with a pleasant hop burst. This is drinkable.

Bottle. Small head with medium duration. Color is golden. Aroma is malt and hops. Taste is just a little better than your average lager.

Bottle. Golden body with moderate carbonation and average white foamy head. Nice and well balanced malty/hoppy aroma with bready, herbal, and citrusy notes. Decent taste that is, however, less complex than the aroma. Ends with a good bitter finish.

500ml bottle. The completely clear head disappears quickly. The aroma lingers scentfull and grassy. Strong matle taste with a surprising attack of hops in the finish. Tingling and sparkling a long while after swallowed.

Bottle. Skunked. Pours light and golden, with a slight haze. A clear skunk aroma. Purchased at a shop warm. Since this was small town Ohio, I expect that this bottle didn’t lead a good life. (Date on bottle is only 9/05) Slight hint of hops in the aroma and the body is medium.

12oz bottle. Pours a clear straw golden color with a fizzy bright white head. Head receedes leaving very light lacing. Nose is straw and light sweetness. Palate is crisp and refreshing. Flavor notes of light straw, some sweet malt notes.
