Draft at Water Street. Pours a pale straw with a thin white head. Nose is light aromatic malt, some floral notes from the honey. Taste is light overall. Moderate sweetness, low bitterness and balanced. Light honey notes on the finish. Nice.

Light yellow, not much of any head. Slightly sweet, and I did find the honey easily. Crisp, clean, thin. A step above basic.

Sample on tap at the downtown brewpub. Pours pale golden with a white head. Aroma has light citrus and honey with taste to follow, with a bit of grain. Somewhat sweet and light finish. Nothing bad about it, but very light in everything.

On tap at Water Street Milwaukee. Pale golden with a fizzy, bright white head. Sweet aroma of wheat, honey and corn. Fizzy mouthfeel hides heavy grains, sweet corn, vanilla malts. Pretty standard brewpub light lager.

Sample. Rating #40. Clear light gold with a white head. Light aroma, honey and grain. Flavor is similar, lightly sweet, not bad. (2419)

On tap at the Delafield location. Pours a clear gold with a white that dissipates to the edges. Aroma is sweet with grains and honey but not much else. Flavor has honey up front with a good amount of sweet grains and cookies in the finish. Surprisingly drinkable.

A very nice bit of sweetness righ tup front in this one. A light, watery finish but that’s what I would expect.

Better than other american pale lagers. But it still is weak and crappy and yes there is no honey flavor.

Draft sample. Poured clear amber with a small white head that was mostly diminished with fair lacing. Soft sweet yeast and honey aroma. Good body with a thin texture and soft carbonation. Soft sweet flavor with a soft sweet finish of short duration.

Pale gold. Aroma is pale malt with a hint of honey. Thin, light maltiness, light, dry honey.
