12oz bottle pours a slightly hazy, straw, yellow with a thin, slightly creamy white head that faded fast. Aroma has some lemons, grass, hay, and a little bit of perfume. Flavor is fairly mild, definitely some grain, grass, and hay. Crisp finish. Standard lager.

Sampled at the Northern Virginia Summer BrewFest (2008). Pours a hazy golden color. The aroma is full of spices, grains. The flavor is extremely spicy, lemon, grass, malts. The spices almost completely overpower the rest of the beverage, which is a shame.

Hmm... Full Circle label. I guess I’m supposed to rate it here? Light amber pour with medium head and unexpectedly.... floaties! Crisp and slightly tart grainy aroma. Grainy, with some bitterness and definite notes of burning hair. Bottle from Wine Warehouse in Charlottesville.

Clear golden body with a nice head that diminishes fairly quickly. Flavor is OK, a bit heavier on the grain than I would have expected. Saaz hops come through with a bit of pepper, but not as much as I would have liked.

Bottled. Beer #3 of 31 American beers for American Beer Month. A simple idea, remarkably well executed. My bottle kept foaming up when I poured, but my friend’s bottle was OK, and both tasted the same. Brilliant, slightly hazy golden yellow under a puffy white head. A nice hoppy smell that I wouldn’t have thought to be German. Malt taste is bright and sharp, kind of like an ordinary "beer" turned up to 11. Hop taste lingers nicely after the first few sip. Definite pilsener malt taste, almost a hint of whiskey malts; just a tiny bit oxidized. Still a great discovery.2nd bottle, 1 Feb. 2006. This is from the same purchase as the first, so it’s over 9 months old. Still holds up exceptionally well. A gush of foam that actually has geographic features in the glass. Malts are mild but clean, and the hop is spicy... a great lawnmower beer or an introduction to BMC drinkers of how "their" beer could be done right.

Pour is a bland yellow with a white head. Arom is nice and hoppy. Flavor is more hoppy then malty and very crisp and clean. This is a lighter beer but it is big on flavor. Seek this one out.

Bottled. Hazy pale golden. Dry clean and hoppy. Light bodied with straight forward character and a very bitter, near inky finish.

Yellow. As full bodied as you can expect. Very light citrus fruit taste with mild bitterness.

As a full on beer geek, I am a little leery when a beer label brags about using a single solitary hop and just one malt. However this beer is not too bad at all, despite its simplicity. Pours a pale golden color with a miniscule off-white head. Thin lacing. Ther aroma is lightly hoppy with a pinch of citrus. Light-bodied and dry, with a back-to-basics hops and malt profile that is a refreshing flavor. There is also a tiny bit of fruitiness. The finish is crisp and dry. This beer won’t win any awards but I appreciate a straightforward easy-drinking beer that actually has flavor any day.
