Pours golden with a frothy white head. Aroma of lemon and pine. Taste has viney and herbal notes. Palate has oily malt note on the tongue, lemon resin. Woody in nature.

Pours a clean rich golden colour with a big frothy white cap, very long lasting with the loads of tiny bubble carbonation and thick creamy lacing. Cereal grain nose with some hay notes and some very mild hops. The hops really show up in the taste, over the soft grains. Some nice dryness for mouthfeel but the lingering of soft grass and cereal is pretty nice.

Bottle. Pale yellow. Foamy thin head fades. Smell is mild bright metal. Sharp astringent hops on the first taste, almost like old country pils. Yes, quite sharp, almost difficult. Wow, I can't believe how much this is like a sharp pilsner, whew. Good bubblies. Does not hide alky well. Not impressed.

At work: pours golden with a white head. Aroma is light fruitiness and some pine. Taste is moderately bitter. Pretty light. Not very complex. Low sweetness.

12 oz bottle from Buy Rite, 3/31/17. Clear gold, nice and frothy white head. Drippy and spotty lacing. Grass, grainy malts, and some citrus. Some light spice notes as well. Finishes crisp, clean, and a little dry. Pretty drinkable, clean beer. Lighter flavor profile overall. Nice stuff. No complaints other than that it would probably be more suitable for a can than a bottle.

Bottle. Pours clear golden amber with small off-white foamy head, faint citrus/malt aroma, medium bitter citrusy taste, thin body, medium bitter finish. Refreshing and easy to drink.

A very light gold. Smells great. It’s filtered. But had a good fresh piney grapefruit aroma. Flavor is just okay. A little sweet. Juicy. Very pine coney, orange peel finish

Bottle pour into nonic pint glass. Appearance is clear, straw yellow with light sparkle, finger-width white fizzy head with poor retention and trace lacing. Aroma is yeasty/mild hops over strong cracker malt base. Taste is cracker malt with late tart yeastiness, even later mild hop bitterness. Palate is light-to-medium bodied with slick texture, lively carbonation and dry, crisp finish. Overall, not very strong in any category. Pretty forgettable.
