detroiter (957), Euphoria, Minnesota, USA Jan 15, 2007 Put it this way - if I homebrewed a cream ale, I would want it to taste like this. If I made an American pale, I wouldn’t.
Pours a lightly hazed straw gold, topped by about half an inch of sudsy off-white foam. Good head retention, very good webby lacing. Mild floral hop aroma and a hint of sweet butterscotch candy.
Mild, but decidedly flavorful little ale - with some sweet caramel malt generously balanced with a floral and lemony hop bitterness. Light bodied, brightly carbonated, crisp and clean hop finish and aftertaste.
An exceptionally refreshing beer. I enjoyed the first one before the food arrived, and then ordered a second. I found it a bit too timid to stand up to food glkaiser (999), Seattle, Washington, USA Jun 30, 2006 Refreshing with decent hops. Clear golden. A bit of citrus. Not great. Had in KC. General_Gao (2579), Iowa City, Iowa, USA May 23, 2007 Draft, Cedar Rapids, IA location. Poured a slightly hazy dark golden color. Head was white and quickly dissipated to a thin film that left a bit of lace behind. Aroma was of light malty caramel and a touch of noble hops. Flavor was similar with the addition of subdued grape candy. Body was on the lighter side with carbonation on the heavier side. Crisp, clean finish. Eh, not bad, but nothing to write home about either. uglyblond1 (165), Nebraska, USA Jun 2, 2007 Draft in Omaha. A golden yellow. Up front has a little of the twang reminiscent of Millers Lager, but with a very different hop profile. A nice refreshing hop balance. Not heavy, clean crisp finish. Not my favorite style, but drinkable. patrick767 (1449), fort wayne, Indiana, USA Jun 9, 2008 draft - Pours golden with a one finger white head. The aroma is light malt and a little citrus hops. The flavor is pretty light with mild hops and sweet caramel malt. When it warms up enough, it ends up being pretty decent though still somewhat too thin.
