Bottle. Aroma of lemon, mint, herbalness, grass, hay, wheat, citrus, very interesting. Flavor retains the minty/spicy quality with lots of sweet malt, lots of lemon, lemon juice, lemon candy, some odd grain. Nice tart finish. Again, interesting, and very good.

Bottle courtesy of pepsican. Pours a light gold with a small white head. Aroma of wheat, yeast, spices, apple, and orange zest. Flavor is similar to aroma, lots of bread and yeast notes, also some melon. Spicy finish and lively carbonation. Quite tasty and drinkable.

Bottle. Bright, medium gold body with a lightly off white head. The aroma is grainy with some corn and lemon zest. There is also some floral character. The taste is dandelions with some citrus behind that. There is a little bit of black tea. This is a strange one as it is obviously malt dominated, but still more floral than anything. Light in the body and mouthfeel.

12oz bottle purchased at John’s Grocery in Iowa City. Poured a clear golden-yellow color. Almost neon. Head was bubbly, white, and reduced over a minute or so to a thin film. Some chalky-looking lace clung to the side of the glass. Aroma was of biscuity malt, corn, and light grassy hops. There was also a whiff of honey. Light bodied and delicately sweet with a pleasant honey-touched cereal grain flavor. Simple, but refreshing.

Thanks to Pepsican for this one. Pours out golden with little to no white head. Aroma is mainly of sweet malts, some grain and spice. Taste is straight forward, sweet malts, some fruit, little yeast and a grainy taste lingering in the background. Drinkable
