Light golden and clear. Overall, had a light presence on the tongue. Watery with a lively carbonation. Malts were grainy, slightly sweet and cereal-like. Hops were very mild and difficult to discern. Aftertaste was somewhat bitter and papery.

Tap. Pale gold lager. Hugs rim. Has a light hops aroma, not much else. Same goes for flavor. this beer came and went with little impression left. VERY light, with a flat finish. Not bitter, sweet, but indistinguishable, with a 5-second fade. Like a light brand name beer. Eh. Whatever.

Pours yellow wit a thin white head. Smells and tastes skunky and chewy sweet with some non-descript hop notes on the finish.

on tap-pours a retaining thin white head and slightly hazy yellow color. Aroma is sweet grain, secondary lemon/spice hops. Taste is sweet grain-some caramel, slight spice hops. Light body.

This beer is a real piece of crap. Very little head, not enough carbination for a lager. Some crazy bubble gum taste. it just blows. I would rather have a bud light on draft any day.

Sample at the brewpub. This brew is a clear pale gold color with a thin white head that burns away quickly. Spotty lacing. Light hops and malt in the nose. Light-bodied with grainy malt and hops flavor, neither in any great amount. The finish is mildly hoppy and short. Instantly forgettable overall.

Draft - Juneish: Pale gold, no head or lacing. Nose of limey cheap pale malt and stale hops, light carbonation and a bad flavor and mouthfeel. Thin and bland, like a bud light.

Draught at the brewpub
Hazy blond color. Very common Lager, low malt, very light fruity aroma.

UPDATED: NOV 11, 2011 Had again and this was super cold, funky and very similar to a macro. Original score 2.8 Smells soapy. Really, if this didn’t smell so bad it would be a pretty decent lager. Crisp and clean, much better than your average.

Clear yellow, grainy and sour lemon flavor and nose... crisp and light, not very exciting but has a sweet bubblegum flavor that could be nice. Very sweet.
