Jul 5, 2008 Draft at the brewery tap. A light golden beer with a lazing thin white head. The aroma is sweet citrusy with a light accent of malt. The flavor is sweet malty with light notes of lemon. Very easy to drink.

Jan 25, 2008 On tap at the brewery. Pours gold with a small white head. Light caramel malt sweetness up front, subtle grassy/fruity hop finish. Overall dry and balanced, but a bit more body then expected.

Dec 30, 2007 On tap at the Gasthaus in PDX, OR-- Poured a light golden-copper body with a thin white top. Not very memorable, but would make a nice summer brew. Dry, crisp and refreshing. Worth a try, but not that memorable.

Nov 9, 2007 Draught @ Widmer: Golden in color, very clear, thin white head, very sparce lacing, light to non-existant carbonation. Heavy straw nose, otherwise grassy
with oat/hay. Pretty much what I expected. Super strong oats on the tongue. This seems to be heavier for this style than I remember.
Huge grassiness, big pale malts. This is really meaty! Body and mouthfeel are fairly heavy. You guessed it, grassy finish. Borders on
corny, likely because it is a heftier version... At least to me it is. Not bad, but maybe over the top?

Jul 17, 2007 On draught at the Widmer brewpub in downtown Portland. Sampled during ABA Beer Tour 07. Pours a clear golden pale brew with an average and fast dissolving white head that leaves behind a fine film. Very little lacing on glass edge. Aroma of light caramel malt, a touch of toffee and flowery hops. Taste is lightly carbonated, medium bodied with a sweet toffee flavor. Finish is smooth, creamy with a flowery hop aftertaste.
