12 oz bottle poured into pint glass. Deep yellow color with a small malty head. Smelled of corn and faint hops. Tasted pretty good but would not drink as a stand alone. Worth a try if you like lagers ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

On draught at Acoustic Coffeehouse in Johnson City. The beer is a clear yellow-gold color with a thin and fizzy white head that dissipates quickly. Spotty lacing on the glass. Aroma of sweet malt and mild grassy hops. Light body with flavors of bready malt, hops and fruit. The finish is short and mildly hopped. Pretty average overall.

Bottle. Pours golden orange with a small off-white head. Aroma was grainy and grassy. Faint flavor of husky grain, grassy hops and a touch of citrus.

Had at the hellbender bar and grille in gatlinburg. Was only $3 for a pint which I thought was a good deal. Poured a clear bright dark gold with medium foamy white head. Aroma sweet with some floral hop notes. Nice body and character, sweet malt base, floral earthy and slight orange notes in finish. Great lager.

12 oz bottle. Pours a light shade of gold with small white head and quite a bit of effervescence. The aroma is sweet and bready, almost like cookies while they are baking, with some lemon, hay, and a distant hint of vanilla. The flavor is grainy with a little bit of citrus edge to it. The edge fades quickly as a sip moves through the mouth, yielding a smooth cereal taste for a moment. The finish is doughy with some hay-like hops and leaves a lingering raw grain aftertaste. Not too shabby.

A very nice lager. Have had multiple times and it is always good. Has a great aroma of bready malts and a slight hint of hops. A very good lager. Kicks the crap out of any major brand lager any day of the week. 3.5

Received 12-oz bottle from family friend who visited Tennessee. Pours a clear golden pale yellow colored brew with a fast dissolving off-white head the dissipates nearly clean with a thin film top. Aroma of cotton candy, golden grain malt, some light grassy hops and a touch of pine cone. Taste is medium bodied, flavors of toasted golden grain malt, some grassy hop presence and a touch of grain husk. Finish is slightly dry with some toasted golden malt aftertaste and then a mild tart bitterness. No corn detected but a tat gritty compared to the national brand lagers.

12 oz. Hazy, burnt-orange with a lasting spit of small bubbles. Faint aroma of earth-spiced honey. Flavor is a well-balanced blend of caramel, lightly toasted husky grain, and woody-herb hops. Light to light-medium body is mostly smoothly carbonated, a bit hop-tingly and pretty quaffable.

Bottle. Poured orange with a quick fizzy off-white head. Aromas of grain and corn. The flavor found grain and a toasted malt background. Light to medium body with a light toasted malt aftertaste.

Bottle pours a hazy amber with a small offwhite head. Aroma is spicy hops, with some grassiness and a hint of corn. Taste is bready and grainy malts, spicy and grassy hops, and some corn. Goes down easy.
