Purchased at Binny's in Chicago, IL; enjoyed on the first nice Saturday of the spring prior to grilling. Appearance is a lightly cloudy dark gold with a light white head. Aroma of light spices, smells more like a holiday ale which is surprising. Taste is decent, has some interesting qualities like the light smoke, but overall just OK.

Growler shared by Drew, thanks! Pours a clear pale soapy yellow with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a good amount of grassy hops with a bit of light grain and crisp lager yeast. Flavor has grass and earthy grains with a bit of a chemical note towards the finish. Smells better than it tastes.

Sample at the Blarney Wine tasting on 03/16/2013 (as "Wild America"): The beer is a hazy copper color with a medium light beige head that recedes steadily. Stringy lacing on the glass. Aroma of toffee, citrus and hops. Full-bodied with flavors of bready malt, grapefruit and hops. The finish is hoppy up front with a pine and citrus aftertaste. Pretty good overall.
