Jul 31, 2006 [bottle] Pale golden color, with a short lived, pure white head. Sweet, grassy aroma. Light bodied flavors are kind of grainy, sweet and quite drinkable. Moderate hop finish. A quality brew, but not my favorite style.

Apr 30, 2006 Bottle provided by argo0. Pours clear, pale golden with a medium white head. Pleasant lemony grassy nose. Flavor has notes of sweet pale malt, light caramel, zesty lemony hops and a touch of bread. Medium light body with subtle carbonation. This would be a really good session beer, enjoyable.

Jan 23, 2006 Pours a beautiful golden lemon rind color, the nose is very light fluffy in character with a citrus background. The taste is refreshing the carbonation hits you first then it is followed by a malty sugary fruit essence and finishes with a hoppy character to balance the sweetness out.

Dec 30, 2005 Updated: Feb 3, 2006Any first impressions?
-A veil of head lingers on the dull, clear golden.
-An aroma of grain and faint butterscotch does not impress.
-Plenty of toasty hay is prolonged into bitterness, all atop the herbal hops.
-The prickly carbonation for the style makes it easier to quaff.
What if you dig deeper?
-A pleasant pear, banana and gooseberry fruitiness enlivens the sweet malts.
-The rising honeyed grain finish is luscious.
-This is an admirable flavor juxtaposition for the style.
-A quirky cream ale for well-crafted helles lovers.
Pints bottled and on tap at the brewpub.
