Obvious refried bean and lime aroma. Golden color, flat. Green bean flavor. Beany hop flavor. Unique but gross. Aptly named because I swung and missed.

On draught at Chili’s in the Houston airport. Pours a slightly hazy yellow-gold color with columns of bubbles and a medium white head that dissipates steadily. Spotty lacing. Aroma of mild hops and citrus. Light-bodied and effervescent with notes of hops, sweet malt and citrus. The finish is mildly bitter hops with a touch of spice in the aftertaste. Overall about what you would expect from a summertime beer from a brewer like Pyramid.

From a 12 oz. twist-off stubby bottle, no freshness date, sampled in a stange glass. A nice orangey gold appearance with a frothy white head, slowly settled into a thin rocky, sudsy lacing, minimal amount of sticking. Light aromas of grapes, grains and sweet malts, chalky yeast, hint of floral herbs. Medium carbonation lends to a medium-light bodied mouthfeel, dry and crisp, tastes of dry white french bread, a smidgen of lemon honey and grapes, very soft herbal spicy hops, and a dry bready finish. An easy smooth drinker, quite refreshing on a hot, humid July day, a decent American Kölsch.

Pours a straw color and fizzy with a rapidly dissipating white head. Smells of wildflowers, touches of malt and some orangey tinges. Tastes inoffensive and light with some citrussy notes and a floral finish. Mouthfeel is very light. Finish is a little dry and thirst quenching. A good summertime session brew.

Light in color, (yellow-orange) flavor (herbal), and finish (lingering). A great summer session beer with a nice little hop bite.This beer is suitable for multiple tastings.

From the bottle, for Independence day. Thin taste with very mild herbs and slight fruityness. Kind of stale tasting. I’m still on my quest for a great summer session beer. This one falls short.

I dont know why they call it a curve ball but it must be because its different for Pyramid. This beer is very very pale with a limited amount of flavors. I dont find it that pleasing as it really leaves the drinker wanting more and feeling like they are wasting time or money.
