Scipio (502) - Palatine, Illinois, USA - JUN 18, 2012
Pours a golden with a creamy looking white head. Not much of an aroma actually. I think I can detect some bread. Taste is really not much more either. Touches of vanilla and lemon as well. On the bright side, this is easy to drink. Overall, this one seems very neutral and nothing positive or negative to note.

PorterPounder (4632) - Tallahassee, Florida, USA - JUN 10, 2013
Tallahassee, Fl. Market Square Liquors - 12 oz can. Pours a hazy light orange with a soft snow white head that leaves some spotty lacing. Aroma has some light lemon accents, a hint of allspice. Flavor has some saltiness, a touch of light lemony citrus, some honey sweetness. Fades just a bit in the finish. Clean, even mouthfeel.

Sort of stale taste to this beer, but it was a good compliment to the oysters I had at the Liberty Kitchen in Houston in 2013. Citrus and wheat but mostly just bland.

Poors from the can an opaque yellow, no head or lacing. You can definitely taste the hops that they use. Not quite what i expect for this style (i prefer it to be not as hoppy), but good non the less

Ratman197 (7761) - Arvada, Colorado, USA - MAY 8, 2013
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.

coldbrewky (1337) - Hippetown East, New York, USA - JAN 17, 2013
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.

UDBeernut (904) - Near Buffalo, New York, USA - JAN 13, 2013
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.
