Kind of a dull aroma, malty hints, not much else. Clear golden color with a frothy white head and light-mid lace. The taste is light and clean malts, a bit of sweetness, no bitterness. Light bodied, not super watery, lovely carbonation, clean, lightly dry finish. Better than it had to be.

Sampled on draft at the brewpub this beer poured a red-caramel color with a large creamy orange-tan head that lingered and left incredible lacing. The aroma was toasted caramel, biscuit, and faint herbal hops. The flavor was tangy and malty caramel, faint dark fruits and tobacco. Medium length tangy caramel and tobacco finish. Medium body. Decent.

From the Disney Boardwalk location this beer poured a yellow-gold color with a medium sized foamy off white head that faded quickly and left great lacing. The aroma was dryish, grainy and a bit tang with touches of apple and basic lager. The flavor was dryish, grainy and nutty with touches of bread, grass and perfume. Short dryish grainy and grassy finish. Light to medium body. Basic but acceptable.
