Bottle courtesy of emacgee. Thanks man!
Pours clear yellowish with a small whitish head. Smell is grainy, cereal like sweetness with the faintest bit of hops. Taste is somewhat muted with sweetend cereal like flavor going on initially followed by dull, bittering hops. Some slight hop flavor, but more as a balancing act rather than as the star. Moderate body with slightly high, prickly, refreshing carbonation. Not offensive, but not really bursting with flavor either. High drinkability with no off flavors, raises the score a bit for me.

Pours a clear pale yellow with foamy white head. Aroma floral hops. Flavor very overly carbonated. Plain dry corny taste with some flaovr dry hop finish. Overall, not too hot.

12oz bottle. pours clear golden yellow. aroma of a crisp hop on top of a light pale malt character. Flavor of a bright malt body, followed by a sharp American hop bitterness. Fun and pleasant to drink. Easy to enjoy.

Clera yellow with some white head. Smell is malt and dough. Burnt toast and yeast flavor. Super bubbly palate with high carbonation. Way too carbonated for me. It just tastes like soda water.

Pours from 12 oz bottle small off-white head atop a lightly hazed amber body. Aroma is medium sweet, floral, caramel, cereal. The flavour is medium sweet, caramel, some pine/floral resins and herbs. Very drinkable light-medium body with light acidity. Would make a pleasant enough session beer. Overall a fair APA, but of course theres much better out there. Made here in NC.
