this was an interesting beer, better on tap than bottle. has a sweet wild rice aroma and flavor with abit of malt and hops thrown in. descent brew but I could only have a couple in one sitting.

Another bottle courtesy of Narnad. Pale golden with a massive white head that is mostly lasting. Grassy hop aroma with underlying clover honey. It is not unpleasant, but the aroma in general is rather faint. Mild-to-moderately sweet, mildly sour flavor. Watery palate with low carbonation. Finish has a little caramel and has a lingering flowery hop flavor. Easy drinking, but not incredibly flavorful. Most definitely a summer thirst quencher.

Light amber...very metalic...keystone light is better...it was free. Thin body blahhh.

Pours a golden yellow color with a nice white head.Some light jop aroma with maybe just a hint of malt? Nice crisp slightly hop flavor with not much else.A nice bitter finish as well.

12 oz bottle. Pours a crystal clear bright gold body with a small fizzy off-white head that faded to a thin wispy film. The nose is pretty light at first, but with a generous swirl I’m getting a weird plastic like note and maybe even a bit of cooked vegetables. The flavor is quite odd, there’s still that weird chemical or plastic note, but there’s also some sweet sugary notes and a touch of grape soda on the finish. Light bodied and fizzy with a rather abrupt finish. Not the best effort that I’ve had from Capital, I wonder if this bottle isn’t up to par?

Macro brew looking orange/yellow with a *BRIGHT* white head that’s thick as marshmallow. Sweet, fruity malt nose. Many beers look better than they taste. This one tastes better than it looks, which is a good thing. A bit over carbonated, but with a nice nutty twist. Could use a few more hops, but the ones that are there are doing their job. Usually I bitch about rice in beer, but this is pleasant and refreshing.

I was glad that they brought this one back this summer. It had been awhile since I had this one last (still with the old Cpaital labeling). Definately displays the nuttiness of a rice beer. A little more astringent than I last remember, but good nonetheless.

Draft at the brewpub. Brewery malt room aroma. Orange-tan color with minimal head. Creamy and smooth, with some faint hop balance. Fruity and mild malt taste. Medium to light bodied, a very easy drinker. Sessionable, non-offensive beer. OK at best.
