A rather bland APA. Not much malt flavor to speak of.

Poured yellow with crisp white head, smells of light grass and hay. Taste is thin with a slight grassy hop start that leads into a hay and caramel like finish with a tiny bitter finish. Very average.

Huge white/tan head crowns a reddish gold color with nice effervesence. Fairly hoppy on the nose with a slight acohol aroma. Creamy on the palate and medium bodied. Nice hoppy flavor, with some nuttiness. Clean, clear finish. Try it with smoked salmon on crackers.

Pour is a nice copper color with a white head. Aroma is a nice mix of hops and malts. The problem is in the flavor. Nothing stands out. Where are the hops? Finishes watery and bland.

Wasn’t too thrilled with this beer. Randomly bought a sixer at a local grocery store and was hoping for the best but I just didn’t care for the flavor of this beer, lacked hops for me.

I didn’t take good tasting notes down for this besides the numbers - but boy was it far from impressing.

Hazy, light amber pour, voluminous off white head that leaves a significant, almost chunky lacing. Aroma is yeasty must and dust with a bit of skunk, quickly fading to nothing. Flavor has a decided hops bitterness to it, but a very slight grapefruit-hops aromatic quality. Malts are lightly caramelized, and also somewhat stale, rubbery quality in the linger. Thin to medium body, the hops an alcohol combine in a nice zest on the palate.

Eh, OK. Drinkable, but nothing stands out here. Standard flavors, light body.
