Can poured a hazy gold with a lasting creamy white head. Aromas of bread dough, spicy hops and a hint of earthiness. Palate was medium bodied and smooth. Flavors of bread, straw and light spicy hops with a smooth finish.

Slightly cloudy gold pour, quick white head. Biscuit malt in the nose. Somewhat sweet. Decent malt body, pedestrian taste. Did nothing fro food.

Can via UDbeernut..Enjoyed in my basement while working on various sundry projects involving drills and doorknobs. Not much nose. Murky honey amber must, which is both hazy and glowing. Medium body is smooth and silky like a high end strippers ass. Thin single quaff ring is left behind for each sip. Snazzy. Light central mellow hop tone. A nice easy drinker.

Can from ldhughes3 many thanks. Pours hazy gold capped by a small white head with fair retention. Nose of yeast and biscuit malt. This theme continues through to taste with the addition of tangerine citrus. Body is light, would be a great beer pool or beach side, it makes me yearn for getting out of this dreary Buffalo winter.

Hazy gold pour, off-white head. Aroma is caramel, bread, grass. Light bitter and sweet. Flavors of citrus, grain, and floral. Enjoyable summer beer.

Nice yeasty bread aroma. Taste is a lot more than the color suggest. Taste is like a yeasty bread with light hops and nice creamy taste ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

12oz can poured into glass. Slight aroma of orange zest, wheat and lemon. Flavor doesn’t really translate to the aroma, sort of bland and blah. Though I’d like this style in the FL heat I’d pass on this one.

Tried this on tap at The Flying Saucer in Houston, TX. Hints of yeasty bread and a touch of hops, a decent blonde ale. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
