More with the BJCP training. Clear pale golden body with a small white head. Sweet grainy malt aroma with a honey background. Light grassy hoppiness. Sweet malty flavor with a bare hint of hops.

Very mild flavor with absolutely zero aftertaste. Very refreshing on a warm day. Well carbonated with a touch of sweetness. I’d like to try this in a frosted mug from a tap.

Kinz (2694) - Glen Allen, Virginia, USA - SEP 9, 2007
Rating from a BJCP training class. Pale gold, grainy aroma with faint grassy hops. Flavor matched. A touch on the watery side in my mind.

nipsy3 (11) - Monessen, Pennsylvania, USA - AUG 25, 2007
Poured from the bottle of a Penn variety pack. Light gold in color, only a little fizzy for a lager. This is one of the more flavorful lagers I’ve had. Solid choice in that sense.

JoeMcPhee (6834) - Toronto, ON, Ontario, CANADA - AUG 15, 2007
12 oz bottle. Golden colour with a thin white head. Aroma of pale barley malt and light breadiness. A soft floral hop aroma as well. Lightly floral flavour with a light sweetness. Very clean and softly bready. Light toast. Nice refreshing brew.

redlight (2209) - Winter Park, Florida, USA - AUG 11, 2007
draft. Cereal yeasty aroma, feint notes of honey, with a little spiciness. Pours golden blonde with a thick white head. Malty, cereal-like, small amounts of honey, nothing special.

sliffy (2035) - Columbus, Ohio, USA - JUL 24, 2007
Bottle: Pours a clear golden color with a white head. Aroma, corn, grassy notes, bready malts. Flavor, very dry, grains, herbal hops, very clean finish, the taste is gone almost before it’s swallowed.
