Draught @ MacBears - Pours a hazy yellow with a medium head...aroma is yeast, citrusy malt, flavour was drier than I expected...subtle lemon, grain, yeast...middle of the road, decent but not great...

Cloudy blond pour with a nice head. Aroma is sweet and spicy, sour wheaty with hints of lemon. Light flavor of grains with a bit of hops, a dry and indeed peppery finish. Tasted on a cool October day, I might rate this a bit higher overall on a hot summer afternoon.

Average everything. Color, aroma, flavor. Kinda tasted like a combo of beer, dandelions, and lemons. Decent at best.

12oz. Eh how many times does somebody bring this to a party? Average summer lemony light beer. Wouldn’t mind never having again, but I’ll take it over coors any day.
