May 7, 2008 Strong hop aroma when first opened. Strong hop flavors kind of makes me think of the Sierra Nevada Pale Ale but using lager yeast rather than ale yeast. Very smooth drinking with a nice spicey hop aftertaste. Really like the beer but it tastes and feels more like a spring brew than a summer one.

May 6, 2008 2008 edition pours a radiant golden amber with a healthy white head that leaves lots of lace. Aroma features crackery pils malt and floral hops. Excellent balance of floral hop bitterness and dry carckery malt sweetness. Very sessionable. Seems to be a distinct improvement over previous years.

May 5, 2008 The beer pours a straw-yellow with a thick, creamy head. I’m glad I decided to dig out the Pilsener glass for this one. Even with an easy pour I had to empty the bottle in stages. The aroma is grainy with faint floral hops. The flavor is light and refreshing, with bitter hops and an ever so slight citrus zestiness. A crisp, bready maltiness keeps everything in balance. The finish is dry and clean.

May 5, 2008 Decent beer, a little too hoppy for my taste, especially for a summer style lager. Drinks like their pale ale, but a little more carbonated. Overall not bad. I think the finish is too bitter. I probably will not buy this again. The price was not too bad, $12.99 for a 12 pack.
