Pale and just a slight haze. Thin head. Aroma is a bit grainy, some pale malts. Low bitterness, but decent malt character. A little herbaceous hop in the finish. Good cream ale.

Poured from 473mL can (thanks Emily). Clear blonde gold with small white head. Some grassy bitterness, uninteresting, but inoffensive.

473mL can, pours a clear pale golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma is somewhat skunky, with grassy and herbal notes. Flavour is not too egregious, with grassy notes, light herbal character, some skunkiness. Drinkable, barely.

473mL can, courtesy of pictoman (thanks Ryan!), pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma reveals faded resinous hops, bready malt, and some earthiness. Flavour has a very poor hop expression—seems old even though the can is fairly fresh—with bready malt, earth and oxidation. Not good.
