From old tasting notes. Brassy orange amber color. Thick creamy white head. Nice floral hop aroma. Tangy citrusy malt flavor. Complex malty midtaste. Tasty bitter hop finish.

Appearance: medum golden, darker than piss beer. Smell: yuck, kinda smells cheap. Taste: hmmm... tastes a bit cheap too, did they mix beer with Natty Light? Mouthfeel: not bad... the best thing about this beer It's drinkable, but not something I'd want to buy again. Hand me one free and I'll drink it.

Nowhere near as good as the Great Lakes Dortmunder Gold, but not bad either. Clear gold color and minimal malty aroma. Rather thin with a clean aftertaste. Kind of underwhelming.

Darkish yellow-amber with full white foamy head that dissipates slightly quickly. Aroma is balanced with mild herbal hops and light malt. Smooth full palate - but keep it cold, if allowed to warm up it becomes very cloying - heavy on the tongue and unbalanced. This is made worse by insufficient carbonation. Subtle hop notes and clean malt flavors otherwise. Surprisingly decent but not as crisp and pleasing as traditional examples (instead leaving a heavy almost cloying finish, even when still cold).
