FlssmrBrewAlum (1053), Lisle, Illinois, USA Jul 3, 2009 Sampled on tap during the Sprecher Tour (Glendale, WI). All the way back since February I’ve been storing this rating, waiting for someone to add the listing. They said this was in the market testing phase for likely distribution. Poured a transparent golden hue with big cakey white head that lasts and laces. Aromas throw grassy and earthy hops with a good portion lemony citrus and light cereal and pale malt sweetness to balance. Initial is similar, really letting the malts break way to the hops, which are straight lemon and grass (Lemongrass?) and a nice earthiness. I really liked this, albeit, it bordered on a little cloying with the extreme presence of lemon and grassy hops. Fresh cut grass, decent body, lemon stays on the palate. Not too bad. Cheers!
