Pour is a cloudy yellow with a huge white head. Aroma is vanilla and honey sweetness. Flavor is creamy but very watery. Nothing really going on here. Another bland brew from this brewer

Light straw color with a tall fluffy white head. Sweet bubblegum, honey and floral aromas. Hints of malt and grain in the backdrop. Rather boring watery substance. Hints of malt and lightly floral. A touch of metal bites cuts the tongue and lips. Has a light lager signature with a mild yeast enhancement. Some grape juice also in the mix. Just a really light golden ale.

primarily lemony and chalky, with a pinch of sweets and spice; however, not very bitter nor sweet, and there is some acidity to it. somewhat creamy texture, but the palate is so boring. not bad, but could be a lot more lively, literally and with whatever imagination you can muster.

(Bottle, courtesy of Kevin) Pours a lightly cloudy golden body with a moderate white head. Aroma of florals, yeast, and citrus. Flavor of malt, mild hops, and a hint of honey.

The girl on the package looks like she would have a nice package, but just like in real life looks are decieving, and there was little to offer in the overall package. Nice hazy blonde color with a creamy white head. The flavor was reminicent of a belgian wit without the spice. There was a bit of a fruity ester from the yeast but little else offered in this bottle. Someone please stop this brewery from confirming peoples fears that a creative package usually contains an unexciting beer. You would think that a marketing major bought a brew house and is using the guide line recipes that it came with. Perhaps they should let the graphic designer make the beer it might be more creative.

Huge fruity malt sweetness int he aroma. Apple and citrus fruits. Pale golden with a thin white head. Sweet malt fore with some citrus hop presence. Very limited flavor range and low flavor intensity. Still it is quenching and refreshing. Would make a good ball game beer.

A slightly hazed, golden body with a quickish head... an appearance that would rate a "3" without that stylin’ Betty on the label.... VROOM! Bready aroma with hopcit & a dash of pepper. Honey/grapefruit flavor with APA-worthy hop action. Ends a little thin, but she’s a tasty little blonde.
