Commercial Description:
A rich, golden-colored beer with a light, malty flavor. Light bodied and refreshing. This 100% malt beer is fermented with special yeast originally developed on the Pacific Coast to produce true lager flavor at higher than normal fermentation temperatures. A real thirst quencher, great any time of the year.

Pours a bright golden, almost straw yellow colour. Head is small beige colour. Aroma is off hops, possibly Willamette? reminds me of it anyway, mouthfeel is full and silky, but flavors are impressive for this one. Not even in the least bit grainy, but classic PC lager style.

Decent, but not quite what I thought I was getting. I imagined a mildly hopped malty beer, more like a German Lager than this. Crispy hops and nice mouthfeel. From the tap at the brewpub.

On tap at the brewpub on 6/21/07: Pours a transparent orange bronze with a thin ring of white head. Pale malty aroma has some faint grassy hops and mild fruity esters. Body starts lightly sugary sweet with some earthy grassy green hops. Finishes a little thinner and bittersweet. Pretty drinkable and true to style, but otherwise uninteresting.

Sampled on draught at the brewpub in Cedarburg, Wisconsin. Pours a clear golden amber brew with an average white head that dissolves to a fine film and white ring. Aroma of sweet caramel and cereal malts, light citrus zest with a touch of yeast. Taste is medium bodied with light carbonation, light bread dough, some yeast and a touch of fruity citrus peel flavors. Finish is slightly gritty, some bitterness and a bread-like aftertaste flavor. A decent refresher style beer.

Another find from Silver Creek. This Lager pours a nice light amber color, with a good head that has continual lacing. the smell is slow to come, with light sweet malts, molasses, caramel, and a hint of cascade hops. The taste is totally satisfying; a great lager with sugar malts but with a good hop balance. This beer is extremely easy drinking, and is worthy to be Silver Creek’s flagship brew.

Light straw color with a wispy white head. Pale male, light bread dough and a mild sanitizer scent. Light malr, hint of grain and a touch of fruit. Fairly dry and uneventful in the finish. A decent steam brew.

Tap @ brewpub. Clear golden body. Corn ’ pale malt aroma. Equally macroish flavor - sugary pale malt, undistinguished lagery hops. Yikes.
