3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
The aroma is dusty and grainy with citrusy hops and hints of herbs, hay, and flowers. The appearance is light gold with a large head. The taste is like the aroma with a wonderful malt hop balance. The palate is a tad thin but OK. Overall this one is great and has a German noble hops signature.

Originally reviewed: 2/15/12. Finally was able to find this one during a trip to the Upstate last weekend. Bottled on 12/21/11. Poured into a stemmed lager glass.
Pours a slightly-hazy pale gold with a lusciously thick bone-white head. Great retention. Sticky sip rings cling to the glass. The nose is sharp with grassy notes, lemon-lime, floral hops. Body is effervescent and lively. Sweet citrus flavors join arms with a subtle green hop twang that is lip-smackingly good. This beer errs on the mild side, but it is packed full of flavor regardless. Refreshing and tasty. Loved this one.

Bomber from Green’s, Greenville. Very bright and clean pour, a vibrant light gold with crisp carbonation. Soft notes of green apple, wheat, and dry hops in the nose, with a touch of sweetness. Mouthfeel is full, vigorous. The flavors are bright and refreshing, and comparably complex, with a slightly dry note in the finish. Enjoyable.

Bottle. Pours clear gold with white head. Nose/taste of safe, thyme, white pepper and pilsner malt. Medium body. Creamy mouthfeel. Well done.

People are nuts. The true test of a brewer to me is to make a delicate beer with some sort of complexity. This beer for the style is outstanding. You can hide a lot of issues with some bigger tasting beers (listen I love me an IPA but you can hide there). But when you can make something like this...you know what you doing. Beautiful malt flavor with a touch of wheat. Great clouds and perfect for the changing weather right now.

nothing really special, a light crisp beer with little malts and a touch of lemon zing. it taste kind of bland like a club soda. not too much hops if any. overall a thirst quencher.

Draft. Pours gold with a white head. Grainy aroma with some light grassy notes. The flavor has a grainy base, with light flowery and grassy notes. Decent.

Hazed yellow pour with a frothy white head and lace. Aroma of dry wheaty malt and perfumy hops. Sweet papery malt with a light perfumy hoppiness. Nice light bitter. Good body and carbonation for the style.

I was lucky enough to receive a bottle of this from thagr81us in a trade down in South Carolina. It poured an excellent and vibrant straw yellow with medium cloudiness. The head was white and frothy. It smelled great, slightly yeasty with citrus hints to it. It was just like you’d want a Kolsch to smell. The taste was excellent as well. It featured the citrus like yeasty flavor with a slight sourness to it. It was superb. The beer was very, very light, almost like a pale pale wheat. It was very drinkable and my friend and I both really enjoyed trying it. I greatly recommend this. It was perfect on a humid summer night.
