Tap at the brewery. Clear golden pour with a small white head. Not much to speak of in terms of either flavor or aroma, very light hopping and malting all around. Its clean though, and would serve well for an intro level beer drinker.

Sample at the brewpub. The beer pours a hazy golden color with a thin white head that diminishes quickly. Spotty lacing. Grainy malt aroma with mild hops. Light body with sweet malt and subtle hops flavors. The finish is bready malt with a short hops finish. Average overall.

Great finish the evening beer. Listed as 4.5% abv on the brewpub beer board. Nice deep gold color with modest head and lacings. Malt flavor was very good with just enough hops (18 IBU) to make it enjoyable. Very pleasant light bodied beer. Blows away any macro and very sessionable when you don’t need much alcohol.

On tap at Block-15--Poured a light straw golden body with a thin white head. Clean, clear, malty, cereal, thin nose. Mild medium mouthfeel. Not much in the finish, but, hey, it’s a golden ale.
