12 oz bottle poured a nice amber with very little white head. Aroma is grainy. Taste is grainy/malty with no hops. People in KC rave about this and I am still not sure why. There are much better choices in the area in Boulevard, The River Market Brewery, McCoys Brewery, and 75th St Brewery; in no particular order. Outside of KC I personally know of much betteramber ales.

Sample at the Day Before Labor Day party, thanks to unclemike for the trade so I can check KS off the list! This beer pours a clear amber-copper color with a medium thin off-white head that recedes steadily. Spotty lacing on the glass. Aroma of grain and caramel malt. Medium-bodied with a sweet malty character. Light fruit and caramel and just a hint of hops. The finish is sweet, malty and short. Just average overall.

A trade from Unclemike: Pours dark amber and has a good head and lacing, conditioning ok, flavor is an odd assortment of grains and hops, (I’d like to know what they used.), taste is somewhat barnyard with a noticeable sourness, grassy hop finish, not too impressed with this one.

bottle, from trade with unclemike. Ok aroma. Sweet. grainy, wheat, little citrus, orange mainly, caramel, wet cardboard. Clean brownish orange color, good head that faded quickly. No lacing. Bitter sweet flavor, grassy bitterness with minor caramel sweetness. Medium body, creamy mouthfeel, bitter finish. Ok, nothing bad, nothing to rave about.

I really liked this beer for it’s refreshing flavor/mouth feel. Some might say it is weak but man - I loved it for not trying to over do the hops as so many beers do these days.

12oz Bottle Pours out a light amber topped with a tall fizzy sand head. Aroma of malt and ligth sweetness. Tast light malt and little sweetness. A bitter end. Thanks Mike for my first KS brew.
