Commercial Description:
This recipe is a true craft ale brewed with only water, yeast, hops and malted barley, in keeping with the Bavarian Purity Law of 1516. We have designed it with a vibrant golden amber hue and a refreshing body. The mild addition of Kent Golding hops balances the generous amounts of caramel malts to give it a malty rather than a bitter finish. A special strain of California Ale Yeast gives the brew a slight hint of fruity aroma.

Fairly clear gold. The aroma has a faint spice of hops, but the yeasty fruitiness is the stronger component. The malt is mild and this is a pretty easy-drinking beer.

I don’t really get it. Aroma is almost nonexistent. There just isn’t much to this beer. There is a very mild malt and hop flavor. At least they are distinguishable.

Clear yellow gold with a small, fizzy white head. Aroma is a mild hit of grains, grassy hops and light fruit. Light bodied with flavors of grain and malt finishing to a very mild hops astringence. It’s not an IPA but it’s a pretty refreshing beer on a summer day.

pours pale golden with a tiny white head. Aroma is wet grain and grassy hops. Light malty flavor, grassy, and grainy.

Golden yellow with small white head. Aroma of light grassy hops and spice. Body is watery, light and grainy with the mildest of hop finishes. Somewhat of syrupy feel with a light astringent finish. I see why they call this one a mild ale – everything about it is mild or light.

12oz brown bottle from The Lighthouse in Manchester as part of this brewery’s sampler 8-pack. Pours a hazy orange-yellow body with a half inch or so of off-white head. A very slight fruity grassy aroma, though hard to detect.... Tastes sweet and bready and slightly fruity toward the finish. On the lighter side of medium-bodied with ample carbonation. An easy-drinking
