From a twelve ounce can, this brew is a hazy gold color with a few floaties and a large off-white head. The aroma is of light malt and citrus fruit. Medium dry in taste with some malt and modest bitterness. Mid-to-full in body. Drinkable, but nothing exceptional.

A thanks to the founding father of the canquest, woodychandler, for this beer. Poured from a 12 oz. can. This beer came gushing out of it's can, resulting with a dark golden color and a 1 1/2 inch head. Smell is of malts, lemons, light floral notes. Taste is bready malts, lemons, very easy drinking. Feels medium bodied in the mouth and overall is a pretty good beer.

Golden yellow color with a fluffy white head that left some nice lacing. It smelled of sweet caramel and grassiness. Very crisp refreshing taste with a touch of bitterness.

Poured from a 12oz can into a Weizen glass. L: light Amber, golden honey. Huge pillowy white head, fades slowly. Excellent lacing. S: let it rest, warm and air out. Good malty notes of barley sugar and toffee. Some fruity esters. T: more honey and caramel. Almond and hint of banana. F: a bit thin, but smooth and velvety. O: quite good actually.

Pours a clear, copper color. 1/3 inch head of an off-white color. Good retention and good lacing. Smells of sweet malt, slight pale malt, and a hint of earthy malt, hint of yeast, and slight hops. Fits the style of an American Blonde Ale. Mouth feel is sharp and crisp, with an average carbonation level. Tastes of citrus hops, sweet malt, hint of tea, pale malt, slight yeast, hint of bread dough, and slight alcohol. Overall, a tasty brew, with a complex body yet easy drinkability, and good appearance.
