Bottle: Slightly cloudy, dark yellow, with a minimal white head. Aroma is light.....honey and lemon. Taste is the same, sweet.....with a nice carbonation, barley malt notes and a subtle lemon/grassy bitter and spice. Tasty....almost made me think I was drinking a kolsch.

Bottle. Lemon peel and barley malt aroma. Golden yellow with giant white fluffy head and moderate effervescence. Lightly sweet lemon malt and mildly bitter lemon peel/straw flavor. Pleasant.

Bottle thanks to a colleague who brought this back from a holiday. Hazy gold lasting thin white head. It’s a pleasant pale ale with some citrus hops and some bitterness. It’s clean, perfectly fine and some peach and orange flavours. Very drinkable and a rather nice beer. Fresh tasting.

12 oz. bottle. Pours clear straw color, with a medium, white head and some thick lacing. The aroma is hay, apples, some light floral notes, and honey. Sweet and grainy, with a light hop bitterness that comes forward in the finish. Light to medium body, sticky, and grainy. Overall, this is a lightly hopped, fairly tasty beer. Not complex or unique, but well made and very sessionable (as well it should be, given the name).
