Commercial Description:
This golden ale is light-bodied and refreshing. The pale malt provides character and a hint of sweetness that fades into a clean, dry finish.

Mercifully it’s retired. Amber with white head. Aroma was of litter box. Flavor was just plain off. You were right, Gasspasser.

This was not a good "experiment" for this very capable brewer. This beer was really no better than the A/B stuff. No longer available from Harpoon/Catamount.

Pours a yellow colour, smells like cat pee and wet dog, tastes just as bad. I sincerely hope this was a bad bottle.

Massive re rate here. My first rating was like a frikin book and now all I can do is vomit. what the hell was I thinking ? who knows. This was just bad. the nose is blah with hops and ammonia. the taste is sour and flat and sickening. Not drinkable because of the pure putridness.

Light golden color. Dusty honey nose. Citrusy with a bit of sweetness. Slightly thin on the palate. Not exactly groundbreaking but a pretty decent American pale.
