Golden colour with a quickly dissipating head. Sweet flavour with a late dryness.

Had a bottle of this today after some hot sex. I think the fact that I was so thirsty really helped the rating. Clear light sparkling straw. Large tight & dense creamy white head has fair lacing and lasts well after the last of the brew has been quaffed. Mild fruity and perfumed hop nose with plenty of malt grain. Sweet and fresh flavor with a slightly spicy middle, and an average balanced finish. Light and dry body that is lively and finishes clean. Very refreshing.

this wan pastel yellow beer hasn’t the strength even to hold it’s head up, so it’s not much to look at, tho emerging from an eighteen hour shift in a coal mine might improve it’s allure. i merely mowed the lawn and find it, predictably, just adequate and refreshing. nose was moderate with some grass, honey, alcohol and sour apple. smooth. a tad watery, dryish, modest bitterness. if the brewer was sitting here, i’d say ’hey, pretty good!’ and feign some enthusiasm. well, he ain’t here.

Good beer for the style. Would be a great hot weather beer. One of the only pilseners I’ve seen brewed in Colorado, and probably the lightest beer made here.

straw color, no nose. i guess you could say it has some hop charecter, thin
