Commercial Description:
A slightly roasted malt gives it a light amber color. The rich flavor dominates the malt/hops balance and is very popular among most beer drinkers.

Bottle is the best part of this beer. I never knew a pale lager that could be mostly barnyard, wet saddle in flavor. I guess that it is an ale, but rather light, except for the wet saddle taste. FUNK too much funk, bad funk....don’t like....

Bottle. Light aromas all around, straw and roasted for the malt, herbs and dough for the hops and yeast, with cooked corn and cardboard in the background. Head is fizzy, white, with no lacing and is mostly diminishing. Color is sparkling clear straw/brown. Flavor is lightly acidic to start, and finishes lightly acidic and bitter. Palate is light to medium, watery and has a lively to fizzy carbonation. Not a bad beer, just some off aromas and a bland flavor.

This beer pours a very thin caramel color with a small, diminishing, offwite head. The nose is weak and, um, pilsner-esque (which sucks). This beer hardly tastes like an amber ale - it is far too light and fluffy. It comes across more like a pale lager. Once I got over the initial disappointment, however, the qualities of the brew - its very light and inoffensive fruitiness and its pleasant and silky mouthfeel - saved it from utter disaster.

The bottle poured clear brassy color with dissipating cream colored foam. Smells a little skunky, also caramel and... wet grass?? Flavor is sweet up front but a rather dry finish. Any satisfying bitterness vanishes rather quickly. Soft carb and a medium palate. It’s not crap, but there’s not much to it either.

(FRANCE) Pours lite amber color with sm-white head. Slight skunk / funk aroma with a grassy / pears taste !!! The finish was dry and had a strange unpleasant aftertaste . Not recommended, but the bottle is cool.

Thanks Rob Taylor for the rate. Pours a clear gold color with a small head. Taste of wheat and malts. Not very good, never will get this, but appreciate the rate Mr......Taylor!

Bottle, thanks Dad! Pours a clear golden color. Light white head. Aroma is sweet mostly caramel. Carbonation is good, crisp and delecious, this one would be good with some steak. Probably would not drink it again. Decent beer, kinda boring.
