From a 12 oz can. Pours a clear gold with an off white head. Bready nose. Flavors of toast. Crisp refreshing finish.

Rich hazy golden and copper coloured body with hints of bronze and a ridiculously large, four centimetre tall tan head. Aroma of light fruits - apples, pears, etc with a hint of malt and a touch of alcohol. Light-bodied; Mild flavours of sugar, malt, fruit and a hint of dry grassy and herbal notes, but no hops at all. Aftertaste shows mostly the sweetness from fruit and a bit of the dry malts, but not much else and no real complexity. Overall, a beer that I was expecting. Not bad, but not great of course, and a beer that was nice to have in a modern-designed can and still from Alaska, an amazing place to support the beer scene and everything. I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from La Bodega in Anchorage, Alaska on 04-October-2013 for US$1.85 and brought back home to the opposite end of the country at home in Washington on 29-January-2014.

Can, courtesy of SHIG – thanks! Massive white head atop a golden pour great retention and moderate lacing. Pleasant aroma is lightly fruity, grape perhaps, some grass and grains. A crisp and lively flavor of light hops and sweeter malts. Refreshing.

Can: Poured a golden with a finger high white fluffy head. Dissipated to leave thin layer of white. Aroma is grain and lite hops. Taste is a nice grain with metallic hops to break it up.

Draft at GABBF. Clear golden color, small white head. Aroma of flowers, white bread, straw. Taste is straw, hay, bread, light spice. Decent.
