elihapa (1033), Honolulu, California, USA Jan 21, 2009 Bottle. Pours light gold with a fizzy, feeble head. Aroma of soft hops, and perhaps sweet corn. Flavor is somewhat bland, a mixture of pale malt, soft citrus, and a grassy finish. Wasn’t impressed, but at the same time, it wasn’t terrible. Block (363), West Lafayette, Indiana, USA Jan 19, 2009 Light aroma of sweet malts. Flavor was also very light, mainly sweet malts, caramel, and slight hops and alcohol in the finish. RasterMaster (120), , Oklahoma, USA Jan 7, 2009 Golden blonde pour into white foamy head that dissappears quickly. Melting lacings keep a small thin ring of bubbles at the top of the glass. A few carbonated bubbles rise from the bottom of the glass. Aroma of malty grain. Initial flavor of sweet malt fading into bitter piney hoppiness. mansquito (819), Boston/Philadelphia, USA Jan 4, 2009 Pours a white head and a golden body... head not long lasting. Aroma is probably the weak-point of this beer. It smells like a cheap European lager... quite grainy almost like a Heineken. Taste has some hops up front, with a modicum of bitterness. Grainy malts taste is there as well, along with a sweet note or two. Taste is fine for the most part... easy enough to drink, but one would expect better from Flying Dog. ROGUE (621), Newark, Delaware, USA Dec 31, 2008 12oz bottle. Poured a pale golden with a finger of bubbly white head that did not last. Smells of light malt and water, nothing special here. Taste is rather bland. Light malt with a water backbone, not alot of flavor. This beer is missing a lot.
Adenila (931), Denmark Dec 22, 2008 Clear golden with a small white head. Sweet grainy malt aroma with some floral notes. Medium sweet and sleightly bitter flavor. MrBunn (1520), Western, Pennsylvania, USA Dec 15, 2008 Bottle. Pours a transparent gold with lots of carbonation rising and a small white head. Aromas are of skunky hops, a little bit of metal, grass and light malt. Flavor is crisp and clean. Malt and hops go well together and finish is pretty dry. noncaloric (601), Madison, Wisconsin, USA Dec 14, 2008 Clear, pale gold, effervescent; a lasting white head leaves ring after ring of lace. Malty aroma, slightly stale. Flavor is raw cereal, somewhat bitter and grassy, again just a little bit stale. Pronouncedly dry.
