Pours light straw in color with light honey, light corn and soft floral notes from the German Noble hops. Flavor has moderate floral bitterness with notes of corn and light notes of honey. Light bodied and thirst quenching, this is one of our lightest offerings.

Pours a clear yellow golden color with white head. Cereal grains mostly on the nose, not much else; follows onto the palate. Light bodied. Finishes with cereal grains and just a slight sweetness. Really didn't get any honey on this one.

Poured a clear golden amber color with a medium white head that stayed for a little bit. Had a sour grain smell to it. Had a sour tastes with little cream feel.

Great color, great lacing. Aroma is ambiguous. Taste is mostly dry. A tad hoppy. It's not a sweet cream ale; that's for sure!
