Bottle from a sampler. Pours golden (surprise!), crystal clear with a quickly dissipating medium sized head. Aroma of skunk, grass and a nondescript sweetness. Taste is grainy and bitter, with that same sweetness creeping in the background. Decent.

Pours nice golden color with white head that dissipates quickly. Flavor is pretty good, a nice balance of the malts and hops. Nice crisp palate, not great, but overall a pretty decent, refreshing beer for what it is.

Dirty golden yellow in color. Smells slightly sweet and light. Good mouthfeel. Seems more like a lager. Very interesting.

Aroma is mild, balancing between the hops and buttery maltiness. Nice hazy gold color with a frothy white head & fair lacing. I even saw some tiny particles in there. Lively carbonation from this bottle. Flavor is sweet grain finishing to gentle hop bitterness, leaving traces of chalk in the back corners of the mouth. Overall solid clean brew.

pours a pleasently vibrant golden colour with a generous white head. a little undercarbonated in my opinion. Light fruit character, grainy midpalate. Yet very smooth and clean. Refreshing brew if nothing else.

Bottle. Came in a variety pack of other Flying Dog brews. Pours golden yellow with a small white head that disapeared quickly. Not a very overwheming aroma, but not skunky like others have mentioned. Flavor is very hoppy and I couldnt taste very much of the malt. A nice crisp dry finish. Not a bad beer, but not a great one either. Neat label.

12 oz. bottle. Pours golden/yellow. Yeast and grapefruit in the aroma, a bit of skunk. Flavor was sweet with a slightly bitter finish. Finished smooth and light. Decent beer...
