    Courtesy of Quake1028. Pours clear gold with white head. The aroma is sweet with malts and a vague fruity and also earthy hop notes. The taste has a sugar sweetness cut by a bitter hop spice note. The hops build to a tepid level into the finish with a moment or two of malty sweetness and spotty malt graininess.

    Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 9 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 7

    Presentation: It was poured from a brown 12oz bottle into a pint glass. The bottle has a born on date of 2-5-09 and it was sampled on 6-3-09. Appearance: The body has a light golden color with good clarity and some visible carbonation. On top sits a small bright white head that fades quickly, down to just a thin ring of slick lace. Smell: Its aroma is clean and light. There are some light pale malt notes with some modest clean hope notes. Taste/Mouth: The flavor starts with a light to medium body, crisp pale malts with maybe just a hint of fruit notes and mellow hops in prefect balance. The carbonation is soft yet active giving it a fun lively texture with a quick, crisp and dry finish. Notes: The light crisp and fairly clean character makes this a nice average tasting summer drink.

    Picked this up as part of a 6 for 8 deal at Roger's Market in Hamilton, NY Poured a nice golden with a spicy nose and very thin lacing. Moderate carbonation is a key part of this brews drinkability
