Draught at the brewpub. Pale yellow with a small head. Dry, dusty pale male aroma. Dry pale malt flavor with barely a touch of hop flavor and bitterness. Like chewing of fresh cracked base malt. Clean profile overall. Lighter and cleaner than the pils. A nice, easy drinker.

Smells kind of funny, no head. This is somewhat good; a little bit fruity in the middle. Okay, but not great.

~Pours a clear gold color with quickly dissapearing head. ~Light biscuity malt scent with spicy saaz hops, very light. ~Spicy hop flavor with light malts. ~Clean, crisp, refreshing, bitter hop finsh. ~Good session brew. Light and refreshing. Nice mellowed out hops.

Draft. Straw color with a white head. Light grass and light malt aroma. Grassy flavor with light spice and light mineral. Medium bodied. Light mineral, light malt, and light grass lingers.

Bottle... Poured cloudy orange with a white head. ARoma was sweet with a little citrus. Lots of citrus notes that meshed well with mild hops and some cracker malt.

Really don’t like this beer. Slight taste of honey but mostly sour citrusy notes. Fortunately it’s pretty thin and so the stinky taste is not overpronounced. bottle from ledger liquors berkeley.

nice looking hazy golden ale. Light bready malt backbone. Mild honey sweetness with some soft, floral hop notes. Nothing too exciting to offer but a solid hot weather drink.

Clear pale yellow with a tight white head. Mild aromas of honey and white bread. Smooth medium body. Decent pale malt grainy flavors are mildly sweet with a nicely bitter finish. Not bad.
