Pours a bright clear, well carbonated amber colour with almost no head. aroma is slightly hopped. Bubbly, lots of carmel flavour. Bready midpalate semi-sweet, which gives it a nice toasty character. When this beer shows up, you know spring is on its way in Wisc!

esjaygee (2496) - Oak Creek, Wisconsin, USA - MAR 30, 2008
Yellow with medium white head. Sweet doughy aromas mixed with sweet malts. Pretty much more of the same in the taste. Dry semi-alcoholic finish with some fruit mixed in. Pretty solid beer.

bboeckl (142) - Grafton, Wisconsin, USA - MAR 26, 2008
Bottle. Poured a a deep golden color with a thin white head that quickly dissipated. Light grain aroma. Strong taste of grassy bittering hops reminiscent of a "Jever" style Pilsner. Not a ton of complex flavors but a nice beer to ring in the spring. Good alternative to the heavy dark beers we Wisconsinites drink to get us through the winter.

madcow75 (425) - Sun Prairie, Wisconsin, USA - MAR 23, 2008
Bottle. Pours clear copper with a thin to medium white head. Aroma of sweet malt, corn and wheat. Taste is bread, sweet malt, corn. Very smooth and easy drinking, could be a good lawn mower beer. I like this, nice and simple and a good change from a lot of the heavy beer I have been drinking lately.

MaltOne (61) - Wisconsin, USA - MAR 18, 2008
Refreshing. Reddish gold, pale brief head. Faint aroma - slightly sweet and toasted. Nice balance of hops and malt with nice viscous mouth feel for the palate. Smooth, decent beer.
