Pours light golden with a huge white head. Aroma of dry malt. Taste is quite unpleasant, has a lot of iron notes. Palate has some of the same, odd notes. Not goof at all.

From old tasting notes. Pale straw gold color. Creamy white head. Faint sweet, grainy malt aroma. Effervescent light malt flavor with high carbonation. Sour, light hop finish. No aftertaste. Very little body or character.

Pours a clear pale yellow color with a thin white head that burns away quickly to an outer ring. Spotty lacing. Aroma of corn, malt and slight hops. Light-bodied with a mildly vegetal character and notes of pale malts and grassy hops. The finish is sweet with a malt and corn aftertaste. Below average overall.

Can from Kelly. Drunk from the can, so I can’t speak to the appearance. The nose is corn, caramel, and maybe some earthy hops. Sweet, with a minimum bitterness. Light body, watery, and a little malty. Overall, this is one of the better light beers, but hardly "good".

Reviewed from notes.
This was poured into a pilsener glass.
The appearance was a hazy yellow color with a one finger white foamy head that dissipated within about twenty seconds. The lacing was somewhat there as it was messy and all over the place.
The smell had a sweet corn and that’s about it.
The taste was mainly the same thing.
On the palate, this defines light and came across pretty watery. Sessionable? Uhh, yeah it sure was.
Overall, hmmmm...not bad for a hot Summer’ s day to replace water perhaps. But it might just be better to drink water than this.

Pours deep caramel into a shaker. White head disappears to nothing. Caramel and corn syrup aromas. Flat with sweet caramel and toasted nuts.

The only thing that’s good about this is that it looks like it’s going to be a pale ale. It’s not. Tap at DC Beer festival.
