Had on tap at the brewpub. Big malt on this one and surprisingly hoppy for a blonde. A hint of lager characteristics as well.

Pours a golden hue with nice floral and light spice aromatic notes. Palate shows off the malts and some light notes of hops. The finish is clean but with some light body.

Probably my favorite of their "yellow" beers. Pours yellow. Nose is mild spice and floral hops. Flavor is sweet malt, some sulpher, mild flowery hops. Could kill many pints of this. Not sure I would call it a Kolsch though.

Nice golden coloured body with a very thin white head. Tons of small bubbles rising from the bottom of the glass look good too! Light-bodied; Sharp pungent malt up front with a good dose of hops, coupled with a fresh grapefruit twang and a little sweetness to backup the flavours. Overall, a good lager - probably one of the best i’ve had at a brewpub! I sampled this beer on draught at Tampa Bay Brewing Company’s Brewpub in Tampa (Ybor City), Florida on 10 November 2007.

Sample at brewpub. Pours a nice clear hay blonde with a nice lasting white head- good lace. Aroma is almsot a doughy slight toasty warm pils malt and herbal fresh hops. nice fresh pils malt flavor- crisp clean lightly floral in the hops and a crisp very clean aftertaste- light bitterness is still noticed. Good.

Bright gold. Thick head. Breezy malt aroma. Clean, lightly spicy. Creamy body. Balanced, refreshing, clean. Very well made for a golden.
