A blonde to gold with a very thin white head. A light malty aroma with light chlaky notes and solvents. In mouth, a sweetish malt, oily, solvents, fruity esters. Quite nice and honest. On tap at GB Cleveland airport, Sept. 6 2010.

Sampler @ Bolingbrook. The beer list here says this has a 5.0% abv. Pale straw yellow, but still showing some substance in my tiny glass. For some reason, I get a whiff and taste of corn. Maybe it’s touch of diacetyl? Does, in fact, remind me of Special Export. Light, somewhat grainy, with a touch of adjunct. A also get a slight impression of inner tube.

Location: We have a bunch of these in the metro DC area, I think I've prob been to 3 of them, including the one in "Downtown Rockville" that I visit pretty often, I've had this one on tap there

Overall Impression: This is GB's standard tap year round session offering, no description is needed, you've had similar beers before, and this one fits right in that group...

Draft @ Miami location. Pours light golden color with white head. Cereal malt aroma with light hoppiness. Sweet fruity flavor with cereal grain and a touch of hops. Light body with moderate carbonation. Not too good. Flavors tasted off.
