There’s a solid maltiness to this beer. Fairly dry, it has that straw malt that I like in my pale lagers. A very tasty all-malt lager.

After trying this once and being unimpressed, I have several months later revisited it. I don’t klnow what the explanation is, but this seems to me clearly to be an unequivocally all-round outstanding beer. It’s gold with a huge white head steadily shrinking to a permanent smaller head. It leaves very nice lace. The aroma is bread, honey, hints of pine, and light fruit, and overall extremely nice. The taste is wonderful, sublte, complex, balanced, with a lot of flavour and full, even body. It tastes of bread, pine, honey, hints of lemon, sweetish with light bitterness. It is exceedingly drinkable and one of those beers that fits the definition, to me, of "beer."

Bottle poured into pint glass. Rather average beer. Clear goulden colour with good carbonation but no real head. Aroma is faint grain and the flavour is thin with more grain. Not bad, just average.

An alright looking yellow with a foamy quickly diminishing head. Sweet malt and ammonia nose. It has a tart sour mash kind of taste with an after taste that reminds me of the smell of silage witch is a combination of ground alfalfa, corn and stalks fermented. Lets just say, it tastes like it might have turned.

25oz bottle. mildly cloudy pale yellow color. medium white head. goes away in a couple of mins. sweet malty, wheat, wet forest smell. light fruity malt taste. quick to disappear on the palate. barely any after taste. crisp and fresh. i can dig it!

Golden in color with almost no head. Aroma of sweet malts, corn and citrus. The flavor is weak citrus, sweet malts, with a thin palate. Not their best brew by far, but inoffensive.

Bottle. Golden pour and thick white lasting head. Lots of bubbly action. Floral aroma. Thin, easy to drink. Good session beer.

Plain, mild ale aroma with a very clear golden hue and not much head out of the bottle. Subtle flavor with hardly any aftertaste and very little more than a weak ale taste.
