Bottle from Liz. Pours hazy dirty light gold with a slight white head. Light citrus aroma. Near med body. Light malt flavor with some hop bitter, but also a component that could be honey or faint diacetyl. Sweet? Buttery? Not strong - so hard to decide. The bitter tends to cover this note, but the note takes it away from crisp. For me, anyway. Still it is finishing very bitter, which is always a good thing. For me, anyway.

zestytaco (34) - Niceville, Florida, USA - JAN 11, 2012
Pours a slightly hazy blonde color with an absolutely massive head. This beer is way over carbonated. Spicy hop aroma of citrus and a bit of pepper up front with a sweet malty aroma as well. Dry malty flavor up front with a bit floral hop notes thrown in. Overall not a bad brew. Maybe the six I picked up was a fluke but every bottle was way over carbonated. It took several minutes of pours a little into a glass and waiting for it to settle to get the entire bottle poured out.

12 ounce bottle that pours a golden yellow color with aromas of grass, and honey. Tastes of honey, and hay, an easy drinker.

12 ounce bottle. Pours a pale gold with a small white head. Aroma of grain, malt and a bit of hops. Taste is grain, malt and grass. Very average.

On tap at Taco Mac on Peachtree. Flavor is obviously very light. A little sweet and a little bit of hoppiness. Would be better if they would’ve taken a more firm direction on this beer - but as it is seems too much of a mainstream compromise, but it is decently well crafted.

eyes_wide_shut (101) - Haifa, ISRAEL - OCT 8, 2011
At a tiny tasting in my home, bottle, pours clear yellow color, slightly fluorescent with a short white head that dissipates quickly, sparkling, corn and slightly toasted malt aroma, slightly sweet taste, bitter palate, bitter finish, light body, watery texture, and overall a reasonable beer, but nothing more.

Draft at pizza joint. Gold to amber poor with a thin white head. Light scent of bread. Taste is light as well.

Is it bad? No. Is it good? No. Is it blande... (yes) is itt blonde (no). Little flavor, little fizz... give this one to your bud buddies... they’ll think they have something gormet. The rest of us... buy something else.
