Taste is more cloves than honey but you can’t really tell with everything muddled by old hay and acidic bites. Not enough of anything is in here.

On tap at their downtown Milwaukee location. No real apparent aroma, light pale golden pour, no discernable head. Faint honey in the flavor, but it is a stretch. Ends up kind of medicinal. Overall bland and boring. Thinnish mouthfeel. Color me dissapointed.

Absolutely see through. No life, no head. Not much for aroma, maybe a little barnyard hay. Flavor is... dammit - is this MGD? I swear the brewers yeast and bittering components are nearly identical. Waiting for the honey. Waiting...waiting... At most, it’s barely there. It’s like honey spread on a biscuit but postponed for consumption for several days until it all visible evidence has evaporated. Some citric souring with undying aggressive carbonation. Yeasty finish, and now we’re back to square one. Son of a bitch.

No head retention. Clear yellow-amber color. Minimal grainy aroma. Sweetened wheaties taste with touches of pepper. Not bad for a light lager.

This is a real thin "see through" lager, even by lager standards. I get a slight hint of malt, some grassy hops, and then a honey dollop at the end of the taste profile. Doesn’t do much for me.

Very light yellow color with little head. Weak aroma. The taste doesn’t offer much, but it does have a honey tinge at the end. Not offensive, but nothing to drive me to drink it again.
