Indra (1833), Prairie Village, Kansas, USA Jul 14, 2008 12oz. bottle. Crackery, doughy, grainy malt aroma, along with tinges of herbal hop here and there. Clear light-medium golden in color with a fine, subsiding head. Flavor is likewise predominantly malty, cereal-like and very lightly sweet, along with tinges of lemony citrus and spicy, leafy hop bitterness, finishing dry and malty. Palate is thin and moderately effervescent, Certainly quite easy to drink, if fairly dull. I’m a bit confused as to how this could ever be considered a Pale Ale, though, seems to be a pretty obvious misnomer.
mgumby10 (1642), West Palm Beach, Florida, USA Aug 31, 2008 Draft at the brewery. Pours a clear dark gold color, with a small off white head. Smells a little grainy with a sublte hop and malt mix. Overall very mild aroma. The flavor is real malty, almost had a caramel or cinnamon character to it. Not much of a hop presence at all. The cereal grain was also noticeable but covered up decently by its sweetness. Not a great drinking beer, but not a drainpour either. rocbyter (638), Waterbury, Connecticut, USA Aug 20, 2008 Light malt and grainy aroma. Golden color with a small white head. Light bitterness in the beginning. Flavor fades in the finish. Light palate hopscotch (4485), Vero Beach, Florida, USA Aug 19, 2008 Draft... RBSG’08... Clear yellow ale with a small, creamy, white head. Great retention. Nearly nondescript aroma and flavor. Medium-bodied and a touch oily with mild carbonation. Well-balanced. Watery, moderately bitter finish. Avatar (73), Gliwice, Poland Aug 18, 2008 Bottle. Pours pale yellow with medium head. Aroma is extremly nuty. Peanuts were all that i could think about at first. Little dry and just slightly bitter. Carbonation is medium to strong - just what I feel it should b in here. Really original beer for me so far. Pleasant and drinkable. I bet there must be some kind of snack that would fit perfect fo this one. Some cheese maybe?
I’ve enjoyed this one. RunDWP (161), San Jose, California, USA Aug 14, 2008 On tap. Flavor seemed dialed down, but was interesting and complex with notes of bubble gum and bananas. Poured yellow just like the name. Hard to detect much aroma. Not a lot of hops in this one.
