Sampled on draft this beer poured a vibrant golden color with a large foamy white head that faded quickly and left no lacing. The aroma was sweet and tangy with a hint of fruit. The flavor was tangy, sweet, a touch yeasty and was pretty watery. Medium length finish. Medium body.

Bottle. Light sweet malt aroma. Light amber with a moderate, quickly dissipating white head. Light sweet (almost syrupy) malt flavor. Light body. Way too sweet for my taste.

Tap. Light creamy malt aroma. Golden yellow color. Creamy barley malt flavor. A good light beer - has a nice malt flavor. Way better than its BMC equivalents.
