On tap at Jerry’s. Honey-gold with decent, off-white head / Floral, honied, toasty nose / Medium body, with good malts, and a touch of bitter hops on the good finish / Flavors of roast grain, honey, flowers / Outstanding.

This was a solid lager. Pour was golden straw color with a small quick diminishing head. Aroma of grains and hops. Taste was slightly sweet, a tad malty, finished with a clean and hoppy-floral flavor. It had an oily mouthfeel and a lingering hoppy aftertaste. Overall, a good beer and one I’d buy again.

Bottle. Foggy, golden yellow pour with little head. Aroma of sweet malt with some hints of grassiness. Flavor somewhat sugary sweet, grass and a touch of citrus. Pretty simple beer, but also pretty refreshing.

Pours a golden yellow. The nose has strong caramel notes. The flavor is rather weak in caramel. The finish is like a lot of domestics... not very good.

Pours an bright golden with a frothy white head. Aroma is lightly sweet grainy malts, corn and noble hops. Flavor is malty sweetness initially then more bready with a crisp bitter finish. Light to medium bodied, creamy texture.

Honey colored body with a fomay white head. Semi-sweet aroma with caramel, malt, and a little grass. Smooth, oily mouthfeel. Some malty sweetness at first phases into grassy and citrus hoppiness. A slight bitter, alcohol aftertaste. Not a bad brew.
