Old undated notes: Nice golden color. Tastes fruity and rich with a nice herbal quality and a dry finish.

12 oz bottle. Slightly hazy golden colour, thin white head. Sweet, fresh grainy aroma, pale malt, slightly worty with touches of honey sweetness. A bit too sweet actually, but otherwise quite good. Toasty finish with a kiss of noble hop flavour.

This stuff was bland bland bland. Very mild yeasty aroma, with close to no taste. Tried it once, but not again.

A decent Helles, with a malty/hoppy/citursy aroma. Finishes fairly crisp and smooth. Not bad.

Head is initially small, frothy, white, mostly diminishing. Body is clear medium yellow. Aroma is lightly malty (cereal, light bread), lightly hoppy (flowers, herbs), with a note of DMS. Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly acidic. Finish is lightly sweet, lightly acidic, lightly bitter. Medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation. Just gotta love that DMS stench. Sugary sweet. Half-step above macro.

Clear golden color, very little head retention; nose somewhat sweet and wheaty. Flavor, while not exciting, is rather refreshing and well-balanced; enough hops and herbal notes to keep it light, enough malt to give it a little depth. A bit better than the last couple of Pete’s products I just rated; more of a Spring beer I guess.

This brew poured a large head of creamy mostly lasting finely sized white bubbles that left behind a good lacing and a light orange amberish colored body. It had a mild malty aroma and a thin watery mouthfeel with a mild malt hop flavor.
