Bottle. Clear amber body. Minimal white head. Moderate aroma of toasted grain and caramel with some notes of flowers and sweat. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly bitter. It finishes lightly to moderately bitter, lightly sweet and lightly acidic. Medium body, watery texture and lively carbonation. Off-taste of lighter fluid that turns soapy. Little hop presence.

My favorite Wisconsin beer and the best Berghoff. I can see I’m spitting in the ocean with the group-think in play on this site, but if you’re looking for pleasant surprise in a hoppy, crisp, drinkable beer, give Berghoff’s pale another try.

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.

Golden pour ehh. Gift from my Wisconsin hook up. Thanks Jamie. Some hop bitterness. I dunno not interesting at all.

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.
