1.9 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
Hazy blonde. Weird aroma - chocolate, mushrooms, tea, citrus...WTF? Light body. Slight footy yeast note. Finishes quick. Nothing overly impressive either in conception nor construction.

hazy pale yellow, fine off white head, lots of drippy lace,
strong vitamin aroma hides a touch of malt,
dry malt flavor, vitamin character balances the otherwise sweet malt, the vitimins are only slightly the expected character but rather a different kind of bitterness, touch of citrus,

2.6 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
on tap-pours a white head that bubbles and slightly hazy yellow color. Aroma is vitamins. Taste is sweet, wheat/grainy, light fruit. Light/medium body.

Draft... Same light yellow color as their blonde ale, but a touch hazy. The aroma holds less toffee and butter and has more of a multivitamin/mineral essence (think of a freshly opened bottle of multivitamins, but muted). Less sweet than their blonde ale... more crisp and bitter. The palate is basically the same, but there’s less carbonation. Short, crisp finish. Not bad for a “health beer”, I suppose.
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Draft sample at brewhouse. Poured a hazy yellow color with an average fizzy white head that was mostly lasting and had good lacing. Moderate sour citrus yeast aroma. Light to medium body. Light to medium sweet flavor with a light to medium sweet finish of short duration. This beer did not meet my expectations.
1.6 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 5/20
Pours hazy straw gold with bright white head. The aroma is exactly like opening up a plastic bottle of dusty multi vitamins. I think it leans toward smelling like Flintstone vitamins. It tastes like drinking watery vitamins mixed with a thin malt tea. Not so good or enjoyable. It is thin, watery, weak and tepid.
2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Sample at brewery taproom. Hazy blonde color with small white head. Yeasty aroma like fresh brewer’s yeast and cheese. Low carbonation, slightly slick mouthfeel. Bland, thin finish is surprising. Mainly just has a lingering yeast finish and some sparged grain flavors.

Tap @ brewery
Florida’s version of Mbege.
One nasty treat, the blond version with some added vitamins. Could not even finish the sample.
pours clear golden, white head.
Aroma, caramel, bready crust, dough almost butterscotch, smelled like aspirin.
Taste, was just like drinking a dissolved vitamin pill in a glass of water with some added beer, skunly cardboard mouthfeel.
Good thing the aroma makes up for the actual flavor.
