12 oz. bottle from Plaza Liquors - Pours a clear light golden color with a one finger thick white head. Light lacing. Almost no carbonation bubbles. Aroma is grain (corn) and faint grassy hops. Flavor is a lightly sweetened grain with a nice touch of bitterness. Light to medium body. Not bad. I’d rather drink this than Bud or most other BMC.

Poured a crystal clear pale gold with a scant white head. Minimal lacing. Sweet corn, sugar and grass made up the aroma. The flavor was heavy on the corn and sugar with a bit of malt chiming in. The finish lingered and the body was thin. Rather boring.

355 mL bottle. Pale gold with just a film of head. Aroma is fairly malty (hay?), with a touch of hops underneath. Flavour is a clean & mild; malty, with almost a wheat beer taste, along with a bit of fruity esters. Not too sweet, which is nice. A little yeasty, perhaps. Crisp, slightly bitter finish. Quite highly carbonated. Not bad. Good cottage or golf course beer.

Usually, in my world "golden" = watery. Not so much here. This is a pale, effervescent beer, with a large head that does not diminish due to plenty of carbonation. Nice balance of bitter and malty. Nice summertime beer.

Bottle Light golden pour with white head. Light aroma and flavor of hop and a bit of malt. Decent session brew.

Golden with white head. Ok beer for time outside under the sun. Schlafly Summer Kolsch is better.

Poured from bottle at Awful Arthurs, Roanoke. Faint aroma didn’t reveal much of anything. Quite light looking. Flavor was decent enuff, typical malt/hop combo. Finished nicely, well made. Not a bad choice.

poured from bottle...very clear and yellow straw colored. Nice subtle carbonation. Smells crisp and clean and light. The taste is very crisp and clean also...not much body. Nothing special with this one, although it is not bad. Serve very cold on a hot summer day.
