Pours yellow with a little head. Slight urine aroma. Very unimpressive taste. Really nothing to write home about unless you have never had Budweiser.

A little skunky out of the bottle. Clear golden color. Head dissipated quickly. Slight hoppy taste not much else, would drink it ice cold though in the summer.

Decient beer....poured a slight cloudy straw yellow, ok head retention. Has a nice floural smell. Taste was nice with nice fruity esters and very slight bitter, very slight....It was nothing special though.....A pretty basic ale....Not bad though

Pours a cloudy golden color. Aroma is malty dough and fresh cut hops. Taste is nice, just the right amount of malt and spice, very dry on palate. I enjoyed this one. Much better than the St. George’s which is rated significantly higher but by no means is better.

Bottle. Poured a clear golden body with nice head. Aroma is fruity, bready. Flavor is the same with light hops. Smooth. Good beer to have after mowing the yard.

Pours a golden honey color with a small white head. Aroma is hops and bread. Moderate carbonation. The most prominent aspect of this beer is the dry bitter aftertaste that is located at the very back of the throat. Flavor is somewhat like a classic Kolsch but is also unique to the style. The effervescent feel actually works against the flavors. A disappointing beer from Flying Dog.

A bottle from a Christmas variety pack. It poured a clear golden yellow with little or no head. Not much aroma to speak of. There were some carbination bubbles rising in the glass. There was a little citrus flavor and a very mild hop flavor, but not much flavor at all

From bottle : Pours very light clear gold color, with a little bittey half finger of white fizzy head that dies hard. Not a fan of the smell at all, mainly corn and alcohol. Dry, bitter taste of corn and wheat. Palate is thin to medium, with a bitter end that isnt enjoyable. Not very good.
