1.8 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 5/20
appearance is light yellow pilsner, very low carbonation. good easy drinker, low malt. Hop content low, but noticeable. clean, crisp, refreshing, dry. Okay, would have again, but not great for their lightest offer at the brewery. I’ve had better ehhh

Served on draft at the brewpub. Pours a hazy golden color with a thin head that fades quickly and completely. Aroma of bitter hops and a bunch of chlorine from the glass. The taste is crackery malts with a fruity finish. Medium bodied.

Had this on tap at the brewpub but was in town for a wedding with a lot of family and didn’t take good tasting notes beyond the numbers.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Draught at the pub. Yellow-golden pour with steady white carb. Quenching citrus with a nice pretzel and bready/doughy end. Very faint hops with light rubbery astringency. Medium-full body a little too full for style, but lasting impression is very nice, a super summer beer.

3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
tap at the brewpub - Pours yellow with a thin white head and has a light, fruity aroma with bready malt. The flavor is sweet malt with some mild hops and fruit accents. It’s light, sweet, and good for what it is.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Objectively speaking:
An entry level beer that does the entry level job.
I like:
Quite a tasty, malt-oriented ale. Clean, flowery, biscuity. It would feel English indeed if you just added a juicy fruitiness somewhere and more hop confidence.
I dislike:
Not much passion involved. Relying a bit too heavily on the grainy side of things.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Clear golden with a fleeting head. Nice aroma is grainy pale malt grist. Light/medium body. Nice semi dry flavor is grainy pale malts with a taste of honey sweetness. Crisp, clean finish. Better than a BMC.
2.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Sampler at the brewpub. Pours pale yellow with very little head or lacing. The nose features grassy hops and little more. Not unpleasant. Not exciting. Light and soft, almost flat, with clean finish. The flavor reminds me of a honey ale with a lightly floral and grassy hop background. This beer was such a noticable "drop-off", from the other seven, that I’m inclined to think that they might have had a problem with their lines or something else that contributed to this beer seeming a bit "off".
