Gold, thin white head. Soft yeasty floral nose with a faint citric undercurrent. Flavor is balanced with further notes of bready florals and sweet citric notes throughout. Light bodied, soft carbonation, light sweet finish. Drinkable, but honestly would never re-visit...

Pours gold with white head. Not a bad beer. Fairly lite and weak, but refreshing.

Tartish, mopwater aroma -- lightly chemical. Bright yellow-gold. Light western hops, light citrus, ale yeast, lightly sweet and tart. Finish is tart and moderately astringent. Light body. Bleh.

On tap-pours a clear golden color w/a small white head. Sweet malt aroma. Crisp. clean, hop flavor up front-but not overpoweringly so. Has some nice effervesence to it & a little bite. Tastes a little like a wheat/pilsner combo-if that even makes sense! Spicy finish, enjoyable, could definitely drink a few of these sitting in this bar.

Definate hoppy character but unrefined. Too much wheat/grass going on here to give it any distinction. Needs a lot of work.

on tap-pours a white head that laces with gold color. Aroma is sweet malt. Taste is sweet caramel malt, hops. Good effervescence.
