steview (783), Oceanside, California, USA Oct 6, 2008 growler from Pizza Port Carlsbad--well, it’s not what was expected--as DarkElf perhaps suggests, change the name! decent white head that becomes soapy and airy easily, with quite the boring gold body; cookie dough at first whiff, but then it becomes cereal; flavors are notably earthy, floral, with light citrus; fairly carbonated, but then greasy, and eventually able to be bitten; not great! disappointing for Pizza Port... :o( BrotherGrendel (186), San Diego (La Jolla), California, USA Aug 16, 2008 Clear ultra-light yellow, thin layer of white head. Aroma is clean and crisp malts, some cereal grains, and earthy hops. Flavor is pale malts and grassy hops, a touch of sweet bread, light fruits in the finish. Palate is light-bodied and watery with amped carbonation. Overall, a smooth and easy-drinking session ale. badlizard (1526), San Diego, California, USA Jun 22, 2008 Tasted at the SDCF. Clear deep yellow with a fizzy white head. Faint caramel aroma and a clean sweet taste. kyzr (962), Belgrade, Montana, USA Mar 22, 2008 Pale yellow with small head. Nose was light of fruit. Flavor was much the same with a sweet malty crisp flavor. kp (6300), Woodstock, Georgia, USA Sep 1, 2007 Date: 12/04/2005

clear yellow, thin white head, sweet malt flavor with just a hint of balancing bitterness, should malk the bmc crowd happy except it might have too much malt flavor for them
