From old, undated notes. Poured from a bottle.
Clear yellow color.
Bright white head; spotty lace.
Light clove & banana bread nose; not much there.
Medium thin mouthfeel.
Slight bread flavor; boring maltiness.
Bud Light flavor minus the corn. Not good.

Substantial clarity for this pale ale, yellow, full inch of head, white on top. Aroma was toasted cereal grains, not much in the way of hopping.
Taste, bud ale. Coors ale. Along those lines. Fractionally hopped, but prolly the high end of back in the day. This is just more expensive bmc ale type of stuff for me. Neat idea to bring it back, but its a dinosaur.

L: Pours brilliant gold under a clingy 1” white foam collar.
S: white bread, light malts.
T: Malt driven bread to biscuit with a moderate bitter hop accent on the finish.
F: Very creamy, medium body and carbonation.
O: A very drinkable classic that is somewhat run of the mill by today’s standards.

Golden yellow, clean. Straw, very mild citrus, pale malt. Maltier than most pales, bright and clean.
