22 oz. bottle from BevMo - Pours a slightly hazy amber color with a 1/2 finger off white head. Very light spotty lacing. Has a noble hop, esters, and toasted malt aroma. Flavor is toasted malt and esters. Light to medium body. Watery palate. An OK beer.

12 oz bottle consumed at fridge temp. Golden color w/ amber hue. Small white head w/o much lace at all. Light watery mouthfeel. This is a pretty average brew. It neither offends or inspires. Mild hop flavor, maybe some citrus notes in there somewhere. Gets fairly boring as it warms. Mild bitter aftertaste. Might be a good lawnmower beer.

Diacetyl city! Not too impressed with the massive dose of butterscotch that went up my nose when opening this one. Potential is there for a nicely balanced drop with a rose like floral hop note, but the fermentation by-products are hard to see past.

Bready aroma, with feint hints of english hops. Pours light yellow, blonde. Stale bread flavor, with hints of citrus hops. Flat flavor, alittle dry.
