italarican (157), Astoria, New York, USA Jul 19, 2009 Pours a transparent golden yellow with a decent amount of standard white head. Aroma of apricot and a bit of yeast. Flavor has a nice amount of fruit to it, as well as malt and hops. Light and a bit thin. halfonit (423), Fall River, Massachusetts, USA Jul 18, 2009 Has a bright yellow color and is mostly clear. I can smell malts, yeast, and a slight citrus aroma. Taste is full of carbonation, with flavors of malts and hops. Has a little bite in the end. This one is nothing too special. GardenGabe (125), Denver, Colorado, USA Jul 12, 2009 Orange straw hazy pour with a nearly nonexistent head. Smells of citrus and some floral hops. Taste is slightly metallic orange and lemon, some bitter finish. A light beer for a hot day. FlssmrBrewAlum (1079), Lisle, Illinois, USA Jul 11, 2009 12 oz bottle from Siciliano’s (Grand Rapids, MI). Pours a cloudy straw pale yellow, decent bright white bubbly head that dies to a non existant film. Aromas are muted, light, a bit grainy and rice comes into the equation. A bit grainy, a bit sour, almost with some subtle Biere De Garde character, light bitterness in the finish. A bit of light fruit, vague orange. Hard to describe. A slight funk that grows on me. Not sure if that is supposed to be there, perhaps the rice? Interesting, but falls a bit short overall for a rebuy.

Pale hop aroma. Clear golden coloured pale and malty with a creamy finish. BeerBunker (607), Burbank, Illinois, USA Jun 30, 2009 12oz bottle. Pours golden with a fizzy white head. Aroma is of wheat, rice, citrus, spice, and hops. If it didn’t mention it had rice in it, I would think this beer smelled skunked. Taste is of wheat, citrus, and slight hops. There is also a big presence of rice that doesn’t dominate, but does blend well. Each sip starts off with lots of wheat and citrus, and ends with lots of rice and spice. There is a slight hop character to it, but it is buried underneath the rice. Lingering taste of spice and rice. Mouthfeel is medium and had more body that I was expecting. Surprisingly very drinkable. Trev (850), Lakeville, Minnesota, USA Jun 27, 2009 Pours pale gold with thin head.
Aroma is light with fruity tones and grainy. Hint of grassy hop
Flavour is a slightly sweet at first. Then alight mettalic grassy bitterness. Cavie (1317), Fort Worth, Texas, USA Jun 24, 2009 Golden pour with a light feel. I enjoyed this one very much. It had hints of fruit in it but maintained a solid body. This one went down easy.
