Watery yellow with quick to die thin white head.
Well, I had this on draft at a tap wall six years ago when I'm not sure the Penguin City location was even open to visiting patrons yet, but at the time I got stale corn and sweaty body odor.
I've since had a much more pleasant experience with some of their other beers on-site, so I'll have to revisit, but like IC and other semi-local beers nearby, I don't have high hopes.

Pours nice and clear gold from the can, just a slight head. Nice dry taste with a little sweetness mixed in, not quite a german pils. This is very drinkable and goes down easy and tasty. I could drink a lot of these and enjoy it. A very sessionable and tasty beer. Nicely done.

12 ounce can, no dating on it that I could find. Served in a pint glass, the beer pours a slightly hazy gold color with not quite an inch white head. Head retention and lacing are decent. The brew smells mostly like sweet/bready malt and a hint of honey and lemon. I think the taste is pretty much the same way, mostly sweet and bready tasting but with a bit of honey and lemon noticeable. Mouthfeel/body is light, it's smooth and easy to drink with a moderate amount of carbonation. I thought this was an enjoyable golden/blonde ale, certainly worth trying if you're into sweet/grainy tasting brews.
