hopscotch (7288) - Vero Beach, Florida, USA - MAY 5, 2010
Bottle… Clear, light amber lager with a small, wispy, white head. The bouquet is of peppery, spicy hops, lemon zest and pale grains. Light-bodied with fizzy carbonation. Well-balanced - not a lot of flavor, but not overly sweet, even when fairly warm. There’s actually a decent little hop bite here. Short, crisp, refreshing finish.

Tmoney99 (6892) - Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - JUL 9, 2009
Bottle from package store when I was riding thru Nashville. Poured a straw color with an average frothy white head that diminished slowly and produced fair lacing. Light sweet malt and grainy aroma. Light body with with a thin texture and lively carbonation. Light sweet smooth flavor with a light sweet finish of short duration. Cold wet alcohol with a little character.

BMan1113VR (6145) - Los Angeles, California, USA - DEC 8, 2008
Pours with a bit of head that fades quick and a light amber-yellow. Aroma of cardboard, grassy hops, and corn syrup. Taste is astringent with notes of wheat and metal. Not good. Fizzy and dry. Roomates were not to interested in me passing it on to them.

Cletus (6025) - Connecticut, USA - JAN 19, 2008
Pours gold with a decent white head. Smells of sweet malt, hints of hay, some citrussy touches. Tastes of sweet malt with some tangy lemony hints. Not bad for a light beer.
