Commercial Description:
A medium-bodied American Pilsener beer that is crisp, clean and quite smooth for a craft brewed light lager. We are proud to offer this beer as our lightest house offering while not compromising flavor in a light beer.

Draught @ Brewpub: Aroma of lemon, light hops, and corn. Smells like an American macro. Poured gold/apple juice/piss in color with no real head. Clear. Lightly sparkling. No lacing. Tastes of corn, slight hops, and lemon. Like an American macro with better ingredients. Light body. Average texture. Soft to average carbonation. Hop and lemon finish. Just slightly better than US macros.

This is the latest Brass offering to try to get the BMC crowd to try craft beers. It is what it is, a golden lager with a decent head and sweet malty smells with a touch of corn and a slight suggestion of grassy hops. The hops aren’t present in the flavor, just there enough to keep the sweetness in check. Curiously, I witnessed brewmaster Anthony Carollo giving some of his reqular BMC folk free samples, and this seemed to be too much for them. Oh, well.
