341ml brown bottle. Gold/yellow toned beer. Poured with a very thick white head. Light traces of malt in the aroma, some faint caramel as well. Flavour is blandish malt, grains and light caramel, virtually no hop profile. Average carbonation, light body. Fairly basic pale lager with no bells and whistles. If you want to drink locally, and your thing is pale lager, I guess give this one a try.

This is not that great. I was upset because I had heard great things of Alley Kat. Hints of fruit and something else undistinguishable.

Light beer with not much head. Better than most North American pale lagers but nothing exceptional or sensational here...

Lightly hazed yellow with a little head. The nose is socks and a bit of fruit, grass and detergent. Tart and lightly bitter, organic notes with not much else happening. Obviously past it’s prime, but I’m sure there wasn’t much there to start with.
