5/08/2008: Thomas Hooker Munich Style Golden Lager pours a hazy/cloudy yellow color with LOTS of fluffy and pillowy white head. The aroma is light grainy with hints of toasted malt and some grassy hops and lemon-like tones coming through as well. The flavor is malty (lighty sweet pale malt) with some nice yeasty bread and fruit qualities (some light citrus too) and balanced with some soft grassy and earthy hops. Crisp and refreshing finish. The body of this beer is medium-light to medium and is extremely smooth and easy on the palate. I would say that this is a solid Helles beer that is especially sessionable. I would drink this regularly if it were available to me.
500 ML flip-top bottle ($6.79) from Derosier’s in Freeport, Maine. Rating #74 for this beer...

Sep 25, 2008 (Bottle). Flowery hay and grass aroma. Light golden with large white head that laces well. Flavor is a tad on the sweet side, but certainly smooth and refreshing. Finish is a little sour.

May 6, 2008 Draft @ dba. Yeah, not awful but not memorable. Poured a nice gold with not a ton of head. Taste of grass and other flavors. Mine was mildly skunky.
