UPDATED: OCT 11, 2011 From the Jug at the GABF Colorado Convention Center, Denver 11/10/2008 (As Rock Bottom Arrowhead Dream Catcher ABV 4.7%) Some malt aroma. Clear golden coloured crisp and hoppy with a wheaty malt finish.

Tap at the Boston location: Very pale yellow with a white fizzy head. Vacant aroma- some brewing cereal with notes of corn and straw. Vacant body- very macro feeling with flavors of straw, corn (various undesired adjunct) and nearly no bitterness. Eh.

Part of sampler from brewpub. Pours clear light gold. Aroma is grain and light malt. Flavor is watery with some malt. Your american light standard lager from Rock Bottom.

I first tasted the lumpy dog in Westminster, CO. where might I add I think the brew master, Scott O’Hearn is amazing he gets some work done when It come to brewing. This light lager has a golden color and once it hits your tongue it dances. Simply better than other light lagers.

Location: I venture into the Rock Bottom Bethesda every now and again because it is so close, this is one of their standard offerings, and I’ve had it a few times on tap

Overall Impression: A very standard Macro style light beer. If you like that style, this is one of the better ones, if that makes any sense...

On tap at Bethesda location. Look up "pandering to the ignorant masses" in the dictionary and this is what you get. No, stop, don’t actually look it up, it’s not actually in there. But you get my point. Golden yellow, white fizzy head. Grainy, corny aroma. Grainy flavor with slight pilsner notes. A little watery, but not terribly for the style.

(11/11/08) Draught sample at the brewpub in King of Prussia. Clear pale yellow-golden color. Grainy aroma with some corn and malt. Sweet flavor with grains, cereals and very light hoppy bitterness in the finish. Light-bodied.

Draught at Colorado Springs as 719 Light(10/7/08)-Pours a clear golden body with a small covering for a head. Aroma of grains. Flavor of light hops and malt. This light bodied brew is your typical brewpub light.

On tap at the Rock Bottom in Boston’s Theater District. The menu said it had a nice balance of hops and berley. I guess it did, I know it was ice cold and went down nice and smooth. I liked it and would order it again.

tap @ King of Prussia. pours clear pale straw. nose of corn and wheat maltiness. light fruitiness. flavor is heavy corn/ wheat.so is finish. kinda like nati-boh, which isn’t always a bad thing.
