Poured from a can into a pint glass
Appearance - Pours a lightly hazed golden amber color with a one finger head of white foam. The head fades very fast leaving just a trace of foamy lace on the sides of the glass.
Smell - The aroma of the brew is heaviest of a artificial vanilla and slightly grainy smell mixed with a little bit of a caramel. Along with these smells comes a little bit of wheat and creme and a touch of grass.
Taste - The taste begins with a sweet vanilla creme taste that has a decent hit of caramel and bready sweetness upfront. There is a little bit of bready and lightly powdered sugar like/corn syrup sweetness taste that comes to the tongue and leaves one with a sweeter and easy drinking taste on the sides of the tongue.
Mouthfeel - The body of the brew is rather moderate to slightly heavier for a brew of only 4.8 % with a carbonation level that is moderate. Overall the feel is great and makes for a sweet easy drinking brew.
Overall - A slightly sweet, but nice brew overall. A decent sweeter brew with a easy drinking feel.

This is a fun beer. Had it from draft into a tall pint glass. Cloudy yellow color with a nice white head and good lacing. Not a strong smell or taste, sort of a light pale ale with a heavier feel. It was served with powdered sugar on the head! (The barkeep gave it just a touch, so it did not interfere with the beer taste but made it fun!)

On tap at Community beer Co. Look is bright pale ale yellow. Zero head. Smell is very "flavoring" which actually turned me off. In actually its a decent pale ale, not much vanilla or fair flair. Basic, good carbonation, and refreshing.

A very pretty clear amber color. Nice spicy smell. I'm going against my anti-sweet mind, but for the "cake" part of funnel cake, maybe it could have just a bit of sweetness? Just say in'.
