Amber brown with thin head and very little lacing. Smell is weak and doughy and not impressive - not much roasted maltiness in there. Flavor is bland and watery - nothing to it aside from a hint of malt. Not much character or depth or body. Mouthfeel is highly carbonated. Flavor reveals a little more malt as it warms - but still doesn’t do much for me.
