Pours pale gold into a shaker. Bright white head quickly recedes to hug rim. Sweet roasted malt aromas. Sweet and sour thin wheat and malt upfront. Dry medium length hop finish.

Light crips and refreshing. Not too much flavors but its simple. Balance pale malts with a bit of crips citrus hops and some light yeast.

mcox90 (1044) - Wilton, New Hampshire, USA - FEB 28, 2009
Sample on brewery tour. Pours a pale yellow with a thin white head. Thin on the palate, not much presence to it. Aroma is grainy with a hint of malt. Flavor is corn, grains and sweet malt. All on the faint side. Perhaps a good lawnmower or working outside beer.

Baumgartner (122) - Eau Claire, Wisconsin, USA - FEB 20, 2009
Bottle thanks to Drew. Bottle poured to glass. Clear yellow brew. Straw smell and sweet nose. Soft tingly carbonation on the tounge. Nice bitters to balance. Little head at all and no lacing. A bit thin on the palate

ilherps (246) - Carbondale, Illinois, USA - JAN 31, 2009
Pours the color of a very ripe white grape. Thin head, and an aroma of banana bread. The flavor is highly grainy, with some banana-y-ness too it also. Very little if any hops present.
