On tap at the brewpub, 2/18/06: Very active with a nice thick head. Smooth drinker. Cereal nose. Light grain malt and very clean.

tap at brewpub-pours a shade darker than golden yellow with a big foamy white head. nice spicy hop notes match well with the fresh pale malt husks. doesn’t smell like the typical lite beer. flavors are fresh pale malt, light spicy hops, and some lite pine. body is medium for the style and lays the flavors down very well. Nice way to label something a lite beer when its actually something totally different, but in a good way. could break in the BMC crowd in this college area. Clean finish with lingering spicy hops.

First of the night, and was pleasantly surprised. This beer was not spectacular, but it was very true to the style, and on the plus side of that. Good white head. Light body and sweet light hop character. Bubblegummy and lively, smooth and crisp.
