3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Location: On tap at the Alpharetta Brewbup, 2/15/10
Overall Impression: It has some spice, some doughy/yeasty flavors, and some citrus hops. It pours a clear golden color. Its a solid enough golden ale. Of the 5 beers I had there this ends up in a virtual tie for 4th (5th) with the Venus, both being a few steps behind the other 3 beers.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
On draft at Westside. Hazy yellow look. Bready malt scent. Taste is bready and light citrus.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Clear yellow pour. Light body. Clean bready flavor with delicate touch of hops. Not particularly flavorful.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Clear yellow with a fizzy white head. Bready malty aroma and taste with cereal grain notes to the finish.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Lightly hazed gold with creamy off white head and lace. Light malt aroma. Dry malt flavor with a mild bitter. Medium bodied and watery.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Serving: Draft at the brewpub.
It pours a slightly hazy, pale yellow with a small, frothy white head. The nose is very light with slight lemon notes. The flavor is light as well with a tart, lemony taste. A light body and clean finish are expected and get delivered. What can’t help this one is the lack of flavor. The worst out of all their brews I’ve tried.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Golden yellow, white cover. Musty sweet, light fruitiness in the aroma. Taste is again musty, bright fruits, drying finish.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
On tap 8/3/08: Pours a hazy deep golden with a stringy-lacing white head. Aroma of lightly sweet pale malts with a touch of graininess and noble hops. Body starts with good fullness and a light grainy sweetness with good bittering hop balance before a smooth, drier bittersweet finish. Very drinkable, a nice golden.
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Hazy dark straw. Doughy pale malt aroma. Taste is a bit doughy with light, vaguely limey accent. Overall, though, it’s too doughy.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Shockingly hazy luminescent gold with small off-white head. Smells spritzy like a weizen with lots of citrus and fruity esters. Quite yeasty and not like what I expected. Thin, watery finish. Nice spiciness reminiscent of a wit. Not flawed in any way but still disappointing.
