Had out of a draft can a few years ago. Can’t remember too much about it. Poured a fairly thick head. Average taste, fairly subdued. Hop and malt fairly balanced. Decent but not above average.

440 ml can. pours golden with a glop of thick white head that floats along all the way down the brew. the widget stripped all carbonation just as it was meant to do. aromas are sweet grass and faint malt. flavours are non-existent with the exception of the bitter finish. this beer looks great when you pour it but has nothing goin for it in the middle. faint aromas and the thinnest body ive tried.

pint can pours dull yellow with a creamy white below average head, but retains nicely through the duration of the brew. the aromas here are pretty muted; only the grass and minerals really shine through. there is a faint hint of orange flavor, but that about wraps it up. the flavor is similar. it just tastes a bit too thin to be a high quality craft beer. not my style.

12 oz can. consumed from a glass at fridge temp. Pours a nice golden color w/a thick creamy white head. This is one of those cans w/ a co2 cartridge so it tends to be very smooth, but a bit flat. Not much flavor here, no hop or malts. A little bit of sweetness, but overall a boring beer.

On tap. Thick creamy head on golden color. Head sticks to glass. Faint aroma. Clean finish with some caramel. Creamy texture. Much better on tap than out of the can.

Great thick, creamy ale. It has got a smooth taste, no aftertaste. You gotta love the big creamy head on this one and watching it in the glass after pouring it. One of my favorites to sit outside on a hot day and read a book while drinking. Goes well with anything off of the grill.

Hardly any aroma with a very watery feel. Taste is hoppy bitter. Pretty bland all in all. There are many other more worthy beers. Skip this one.

Very VERY light aroma of hops and malt. By looks alone this is a great beer, golden color with a creamy white head. Unfortunately the taste doesn’t live up to the look. Smooth sweet grain flavor with a mild hop aftertaste. Due to the low carbonation it’s a very smooth beer but it just doesn’t have the complexity. Overall it’s good for drinking after work but not a great beer.
