Tap @ the brewery. Nice head with good duration. Color is golden. Aroma and taste are wheat malt, grass, yeast and hops. Sweet malty finish.

Tap at the Red Herring. Cloudy light blond. Fairly syrup sweet hay malt. And... that's about it. No esters, no... Anything. Pass.

Decent head and yellow body, aroma of bad lager. Flavour is weak something or other; like, seriously? This thing is so watery and forgettable. Just blah. Blah, I say! Back to the grevious ongoing internal struggles of Oklahoma. God help us all.

On tap at Red Herring, St Andrews. Clear pale amber with a tiny short lived white head. Nose is grain, light honey, light toffee and a hint of grass and spice. Flavour is similar but quite subdued with a light sweetness and light+ bitterness and light spice. Mouth is quite thin with soft carbonation. Inoffensive. 6/2+/6-/2+/11

Pours a golden-blonde colour with a white creamy-foamy head, slight hazy in the beer and creamy foam lacing. Grainy cereal malt nose with a little sweetness, like hints of honey. The taste starts off grainy, but the finish is quick. After a few sips, very mild cereal lingers in the aftertaste. Crisp mouthfeel, with still pretty decent body for a light beer. Quite refreshing on this muggy summer day. Does the job !

Golden-straw colour. I do get some orange peel underneath heavy-handed stank foot notes and abundant diacetyl in the aroma. Some orangey notes but lots of blandness. Lame, goes nowhere. There is absolutely nothing good to offer as a payoff for putting up with that butterbomb aroma.

500 mL bottle from ANBL, courtesy of the Probstk. A yellow ale with a thick dense lacing white head. Atoma of buckwheat, lactic acid, and grass, with light pepperyness. In mouth, a lightly sweet malt, light banana and lightlactic acid notes, a bit off, but not unpleasant. Its a good I didn’t wait to consumme this.
