Pale gold. Aroma of dirt, slightly odd. Flavor matched, some dirt, a bit of a cardboard note, and the light malts simply weren’t very clean. A touch astringent as well. This simply wasn’t very well done. Perhaps it suffered from poor handling, too give it the benefit of the doubt.

12oz bottle. Pours light golden with small white head. Aroma is grain, yeast, biscuits, and light malts. Flavor is on light side with light malts, caramel, lemon and a little grassy. Decent beer for a hot day but leaves skunky taste in mouth. Would not bother trying again.

This beer pours a light golden color with a small white head. The aroma is a bit sweet with some hints of honey. The flavor is crisp with a bit of sweet malt in the back grount. The palate is crisp and refreshing. I don’t usually like summer seasonals that much, but this one is crisp enough to be refreshing.

Bottle from Kegs & Barrels in McKinney, TX. Pors a nice clear gold with white head. Aroma of grain, caramel, slight honey, floral. Flavor is lightly sweet with notes of malty caramel, slight pumpkin, and some citris. Has nice balance of sweet vs. bitter. Crisp and refreshing. Overall, I was kinda suprised by this one......nice light, easy drinking seasonal.
