Semi hazy golden brown. No head light lacing. Citra hops. No honey. Maybe wild flowers and great fresh cut grass out side. Yeah. Up front grapefruit and mild honey. Metallic and high IBU finish. No hiding the bitterness of this. 70% carbonation. Light body. It's alright.

On tap at the brewpub. Served in a pint glass. Pours amber in color with a thin off white head. Not much scent to it, light honey and grass. As to flavor, I’ll just agree with what everyone else has said. Sweet malt with a touch of honey. Sounds like it would be sweet, but it isn’t. Ok, I guess.

Hazy copper pour with a small white head. Honey, blue jello, candi sugar, floral perfume, and clover honey make up this brew. Not the best...

AirForceHops (4820) - Epping, New Hampshire, USA - FEB 14, 2011
Slightly transparent copper in color, thick white head with ok lacing and almost no nose. Taste is exclusively sweet malt, not much else going on. Very light; not much flavor.

Pours amber with a thin white head. Smells of honey, grassy, earthy. Tastes sweet with a fruity element and a touch of honey.

OldMrCrow (2198) - Seattle, Washington, USA - JUL 25, 2005
UPDATED: JAN 10, 2006 From a growler.

Pours cloudy and surprisingly dark; this is very mellow beer, gentle on the hops, dominant malt tones, and not overwhelmingly sweet as one might have expected.

Still, not an experience worth repeating.

CapFlu (4864) - Victoria, British Columbia, CANADA - NOV 17, 2004
(Growler) Pours headless and a deep, clouded, copper body. Nose is fairly malty and floral with undertones of sweetness. Oddly, the flavours aren’t really there: the malt is too bitter - even soured, the hops are downing in backwash... the whole recipe is somewhat astringent. Was nice to sample yet below average for my palate.
