Hazy blonde. Watery, light character. Slightly honeyish with a straw malt note. Sweetish, biscuity finish with a hint of wheaty acidity.

Draught@Engine No, 9 brewpub, Tacoma, WA
Clear golden color, small white head. Not much aroma, some light maltyness. Light-bodied. Dusty, a bit woody hoppyness. Light lingering Saaz bitterness in the finish. Not the most interesting beer, not much going on.

2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Aroma is of a touch of old cut grass and a little malt. Pours a golden tone with no head. The flavor is also a touch malty, I guess sweat is the way Tom describes it, and that could work. Some grassy hops, a touch of sweetness. Lingering off flavors in the mouth akin to the amber ale.
2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 6/20
Draft at the brewpub. Possibly the wooden spoon of the evening. Crystal clear medium amber with a slim gray rim. Sweaty neutral-ish nose. Watery light body. Butter and sweat mid-palate. Blecch.
2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
On tap at Engine House #9 in Tacoma, WA--Copper orange pour, murky and par for the course as far as appearance goes. Nose of caramel malt sweetness and mild hoppiness. Unbalanced, sweet, dull mouthfeel. Homebrewy. Not very complex at all. So far these EH9 brews are quite disappointing.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Draught @ Brew Pub Tacoma.
Amber pour. Needs more in the hops dept. Alcohol taste in the finish. Would be a decent beer to pair with pub grub though.

on tap-pours a thin white head and hazy yellow color. Aroma is mild malt. Taste is mild malt, hint of hops. Light body.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Well, there isn’t much to this. Than and almost lagerish in consistency, it has a faint amount of dry hops in the finish. A bit disappointing.
