Guinness4Duff (507), Tallahassee (and Poconos, PA), Florida, USA Jun 12, 2008 Bottle. Pours a clear gold with a white head. Smells like a European lager, but much less offensive. Taste matches, light malt and noble hops. considering that Im not a fan of the style, I guess this isnt bad. tgncc (796), Bellmore, New York, USA Jun 9, 2008 Slightly malty on the nose. Plain piss yellow color, fairly well carbonated. Boring taste, some slight hoppiness, and some malt flavor. Overall drinkable, but unremarkable esjaygee (1467), Oak Creek, Wisconsin, USA Jun 8, 2008 Pale yellow with a thin white head. Aroma of wheat, lemon and grassy hops. Tastes like yet another summer Kolsch, yawn. Some lemon, wheat with some hops that make it mildly bitter. Mostly malted, definitely forgettable. CaryTheDude (1113), Longmont, Colorado, USA Jun 2, 2008 Not much going on here. Some malts on the nose and the same with the flavor. Refreshing to drink but pretty unremarkable. VitaminR (422), Colorado, USA Jun 1, 2008 Sweet fruity and floral nose, little spiciness. Yellow gold, with a decent medium head. Light malt sweetness, some nice spicy bitterness for balance. Very bubbly and clean, light body, actually has a late and lingering finish that is quite pleasant. Not a bad session beer. WesKBob (317), Bethany, Oklahoma, USA May 31, 2008 Can’t say I’m a fan of this one. Light yellow and light bodied. Very faint aroma and only a slightly stronger flavor of grassy wheat and some mild hops. Not bad really, but nothing really good to recommend it either. HonkeyBra (1275), Lemont, Illinois, USA May 30, 2008 Part of the sample pack. Pours a pale yellow with a slight head, slight lacing. Aroma is light, slight malt, some hops, some spice. Taste is crisp, slightly fruity, with a dry finish. Mouth feel is alright, very refreshing when very cold. Overall, it’s pretty good, but nothing spectacular. lemasney (398), Trenton, New Jersey, USA May 27, 2008 ABV: 5%

First Impression: Nice character on a very average beer. Aroma is wheat and malt. Visuals are a pale yellow body with a thin white head. Taste is easygoing, simple, and crisp. Palate is dry, longer finish then you might expect. Second Impression: You might as well be drinking a Budweiser, but there is certainly a different sense and respect of craft here, in the finish, clarity, taste, and color.
