| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Aug 9, 2008 Bottle: Murky pale gold color with gobs of sticky lacing. The aroma is mild with hints of celery and pumpkin. There is something a bit tangy in there as well. The flavors are sweet and pleasant with a mild, bitter aftertaste. Pretty nice for a golden ale. I was surprised to see the rating was so low. nqualls (1429), Nashville, Tennessee, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Aug 2, 2008 12 oz bottle. Poured a clear gold color with two fingers of head. The aroma was very light malt and some light floral hops. The flavor was clean, but lacking. This is a decent summer beer, but it just doesn’t have enough taste. alexsdad06 (1080), Ohio, USA

The aroma has light pale malt, mild sweetness, and some light floral qualities as well. The flavor lightly sweet, floral, malty, and bready. Light bodied, with a crisp finish.

| 2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 6/20 | Jul 18, 2008 Updated: Jul 19, 2008Rating No. 850 from the US. Bottle. Near-skunky grassiness with a bit of da funk from the hops. Cloudy, very pale yellow, short white head. Thin, very crisp body, herbal/spice tones on a decent pale malt base, slight hint of caramel, with the bulk of the flavor coming from the yeast. Aftertaste is dry and my tongue was left feeling a bit chalky. Grain of paradise in there? Not worth it.
