Horrible beer with a thick milk like body. Cheap taste and reminds me more of food than beer. Skip this at all costs

pours a very cloudy orange with visible chunks of sediment. Very slight sweet smell to it. The taste is just... this beer has to be skunked, but given the other beers by this brewery, it could just be the normal taste. It’s like stale honey with some bitter hop aftertaste. Another sub-par beer from a sub-par brewery.

Found this one bottled at my local Osco liquor store in St. Charles, Illinois. Cloudy, dark orange pour with a thick white head. Timid nose, just a touch of malty sweetness and candy apple. Bready but watery, with a smooth, balanced finish. I see what they are doing, but I’m pretty indifferent about the results.

Bottle - Thanks BuckDich. Pours a sunset golden with a small, short lived white head. Nose of citrus hops, wheat, and malt. Flavor is smooth with maltiness and a little citrus. Rather sweet. The "crisp finish" is fairly mute.

Semi cloudy orange gold with minimal short lived head. Aroma is faint hence the lower rating. Mild grain with some honey sweetness and faint citrus. Mouth feel is watery but goes down quick and smooth. Just don’t let this get much warmer than fridge temps. Decent enough for what it is which is basically a Grocery Store lawn Mower beer. Better than BMC. Price about $6 a six. Have not seen it in 12’ers
