Bottle. 12 fl. oz. Light amber/gold color with thin white head. Floral, fruity aroma of apple and banana. Medium carbonation over a thin body. Flavor is sweet fruit with a lightly bitter, hoppy end.

On tap at the Denver Rock Bottom, honey gold color, with a white head, light toasty, caramel malt nose, with a faint floral hop, peachy aroma follows through on a medium-bodied palate with a grainy, toasted malt character with some toffeeish accents, a faint floral hop leafy, peachy note, leading towards a light lingering hop bitterness finish.

Clear gold brown with very little visible carbonation and a small off white head. Aroma is thin but caramel, honey, and faint hops can be found. Flavor is, again, caramel with some floral notes, grass, cardboard, pepper, bread, and a bit of butter. A nice variety of flavors but little volume. Feel is vibrant and effervescent. A nice beer and a good representation of the style.

Draught. Low white fluffy and quickly disappearing white head. Hazy golden body. Mild fruity honey aroma and flavor with a heavy carbonation and a short aftertaste.

12 oz. bottle. Pours a thin, fizzy, head, with slight lacing, over a golden, clear body....mild hop nose, with mild malts....initial tatse is of mild malts then pleasant late hop finish...creamy mouth feel due to carbonation. A pleasant light APA.
