I wrote the following: "This Goose Island Honker's Ale didn't have much of a smell. On the first few sips, it has quite a carbonated mouthfeel. It has a good taste, but hard to describe. It's not grassy. I found it felt more watery as time passed. Overall, I would say its a tastier likeness of Yuengling." 8:58PM ET
