On tap at the Oldsmar Tap House (Tampa, FL). Pours a generally clear yellow color with a thin white head. No retention or lacing. Aroma is faint with notes of grass, hay, yeast, bread, citrus and lemon. Flavor is sweet and slightly malty with notes of citrus, spice, grass, yeast, bread. Generally light-bodied with a quick finish. Not much going on in this beer, but might be a good thirst quencher on a hot Florida day.

Courtesy of Tony @ OTH. Pours clear golden with quickly dissipating white head. Aroma is hoppy, light notes of spices and yeast, mixed with citrus -pineapple, faint smooth sugary malts in the nose. Taste, bitter floral hops, citrus, yeast with very light notes of coriander and wheat. Thin and crisp finish. Meh.

The aroma is rather weak and not very true to the style. It has some honey, citrus, wheat, yeast, and spice. The appearance is cloudy yellow with a fizzy head. The flavor is like the aroma. Its weak but very refreshing with no nasty stuff. The palate is thin but OK for the style. Overall its a real easy to drink beer that tastes good but does not fit the style very well.

5.24.08 tap at Andy’s. Decent wit but not comparable to those I’ve had before. Looks like some bad bottles around from previous rates. Tap was fine.

Bottle: Pale dusty yeloow with a smaller white head. Chalky malt and grassey aroma. Tastes bland, watery, and faint bits of maltiness. Not offensive, just not any flavor.
