Had in August, pouring a light golden colour with a regular head and average lace. Hay smell with other grainy cereal malts. refreshing mouthfeel, not too lightly bodied. The taste is pretty mild, but the cereal notes are present with decent mild hops in the finish. Nice and easy to drink on a warm sunny day.

Draft: Poured a lightly hazy orangey color ale with a small foamy head with minimal retention. Aroma of light cereal notes with light dry hops notes and some light sweet notes. Taste is a light mix of residual sugars with some light hops notes and some cereal notes. Body is quite full with medium carbonation. Nothing too earth shattering here.

Not a lot going on here but good for an easy session golden ale. Pours pale golden with ok head and lace. Some nice crisp barley. No offtastes or anything. Tap at patty Bolands.

A hazed golden amber ale with a thin off white head. In aroma, amateur off malt with boiled veggies. In mouth, sweet malt with strong phenolics, wood extracts, not pleasant. On tap at National Capital Craft Beer Festival, August 18, 2012.
