Bright golden body with a cottony white head. Pleasant, fruity, but very clean malt aroma with grape notes. Flavor has some nice fresh pale malt, light sweetness, light bitterness, and some tangy, cleansing acidity. A refreshing beer that I can appreciate for what it is--a decent summer lager.

On tap at Flying Saucer, Ft. Worth: Beer is cloudy with a golden color. Aroma is mainly malty with a dash of fruit aroma. Flavor is sweet malt and a flavor that I can still only describe as lagered. Good lager beer.

(05.09.06) One pint, 6 oz brown bottle from DiCarolo’s, Mundelein, IL. 12 P. 28 IBU. Poured hazy golden yellow with small white head. Soft carbonation. Sweet malt aroma. Light to medium bodied lager that starts dry with light corn and malt flavors. Finishes dry with light malt fade. Not much hop presence. Fresh and crisp lager. Mild tasting, this is a decent drinkable lager

Bottle from Super Saver. Golden colored with fluffy white head. Aroma of slight caramel bready malty honey, some hops and subdued citrus. The palate is medium, not terribly complex, with flavors of bready, caramelly malt mixed with subdued hops and citrus.

65 cl bottle. Golden clear colour with a nice white head. Very light aroma of malt. Sweet malty flavour with notes of yeast and a touch of hops.

Ah, could have told me this was an ale, and I would have believed it. Not a crisp lager, fully bodied with some sloppy amber ale flavors going on (caramel, some earthy flavors) with only light hopping (for Rogue anyway) in the finish. Very mild bready and light spices detectable (not quite like a toasted or vienna, but there anyway). Amber colored appearance with a relatively weak head. Picked this up since it was St. Patty’s day, but it’s nothing to really seek after.

I was exited about this...until I opened and smelled it. Skunky aroma, but the beer itself tasted mostly fine. Clear yellow color. It had a fizzy mouthfeel and a somewhat yeasty tang to the flavor. Otherwise it was not notable at all.
