COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Light in body and golden light in color, this is an easy drinking beer.

(Tap) Pours yellow with little head. Slightly hoppy from start to finish. Not bad for a light beer, but not too impressive.

Tap: golden pale color with no head. Nice lacing. Very faint saaz hop aroma and flavor. Little bite in the finish.

ElGaucho (1816) - Minnetonka, Minnesota, USA - JUL 22, 2005
Lager aroma with some diacetyl notes. Like some of City Brewing (La Crosse) beers in that regard. Hint of hops in the nose. Light gold in color with no carbonation. Thin white head with not much lace. Bland flavor, but not that bad for a light. More flavor than some. No glairing flaws.

StewardofGondor (1934) - Washington Heights - Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA - JUL 14, 2005
Clear pale gold with a short ice sheet of white for the head. Aroma is croissants, lemons and laundry detergent. A little watery with a hop profile of an APA. Clean, bready finish and a sour lemon aftertaste.

SubstanceT (1092) - Saint Louis, Missouri, USA - JUN 30, 2005
Golden with a thin white head. Carbonation present with bubbles here and there. Nose is thin with some hops but barely. The taste is mostly grains with just a bit of hops. For a light beer this is very drinkable and actually kind of pleasant.

badgerben (4092) - Blaine, Minnesota, USA - APR 17, 2005
Very light gold color with a fizzy head. No real aroma with just a slight taste of grains. Nothing off about it, so it’s better than most light beers.

Light Gold With Small White Head. Lemon, Sweet and Malty Aroma. Lemon Dies Out on the Tongue...Malt Underlining the Brew and Hop Ending.. Grainy Taste to it Overall and Makes This one Hard to be Very Drinkable.

muzzlehatch (4425) - Burlington, Vermont, USA - JUL 12, 2004
Sample at the brewpub. Very very light, bit hazy. Only the faintest of aromas, clean, thin, bit of malt evident towards the end. Average for a light I suppose.
