My first "nitrogen beer". Didn’t notice much aroma to it. The aftertaste didn’t seem to stay around long either. The lack of CO2 bite was a surprise to me. It goes down very smoothly.

I really enjoyed th way this beer went down. IT was light and creamy. It could use more flavor as it had alittle taste and then was gone.

Well 48°F / °C is definitely too warm as the beer spits up and spills a bit as I pop the tab on the can. The beer settles out with an almost three finger thick, tightly beaded, pale tan colored head in my 25cl tulip glass. The beer is a brilliantly clear, full copper color. The spilled beer smells lightly of butterscotch and a slight metallic note. The aroma smells a touch grassy and has a faint herbal hop note to it.

This is completely devoid of carbonation and this feels creamy and soft textured despite being so light bodied. Soft grassy malt flavors a touch of herbal & metallic hops. Tastes beery, with a faint sweetness, really not to much more to say about it. Not flawed, just not very flavorful. I wasn’t expecting much here, but was expecting a bit more flavor.

Pours clear golden, with thick, frothy, very long lasting white head. Not much aroma, a very light touch of malt and a metallic backing. The taste is also very light, sweetness from the malts and a somewhat bitter/metallic finish. What it lacks in flavor and aroma it makes up for in its appearance, smooth body and drink ability.

Clear golden pour, thick ivory head. Nose is combination of grassy hops with light malt and a touch of fruit. Bitterness is a bit harsh on the palate, somewhat metallic. Some fruity esters beneath the metallic overtones, but still very metallic tasting in my opinion. Maybe a bad can?

Keg. Put this one out for my buddies as part of my college graduation party. Pours a golden ale with fluffy white head. Aroma and flavor is bitter sweet malt, its very smooth and highly drinkable, but nothing about this one really stands out. Just a well brewed bitter.

The smell and taste are metallic, with a tang of sweetness. The feel is smooth and velvety, the head is creamy smooth as well. A bitter aftertaste. The beer is bearable but I would not try it again. However I like sweeter, oakier, wood flavors in my beer.
