(bottle - 650 ml) Pale yellow color with a puffy white head. Aroma is dry, sweet, and sour with some hints of hops and grass. Flavor is sweet and sour at the start with dry grass, sour hops, and some unidentified sweetness. Crisp and watery.

Cold 12oz bottle: Pours a clear golden yellow color with absolutely no head. Aroma is of light malts, grass, earth and light fruits. Taste is at first of light malts with a crescendo of earthy hops and descends to notes of grass and light fruits. Watery texture and hardly carbonated. Ending is of earth and some sour notes; very dirty tasting.

Aroma of slightly sweet malt. Somewhat hazy, copper tinged, gold color. The white head went quickly, but left spider web designs on the surface. Starts with what I can only describe as light iodine, followed by an interlude of clean flavor, ending with something more like creosote than anything else that comes to mind. After a few more trys it becomes more like a regular lager with herbal components. I don’t think it’s skunked, nothing like that. It’s just different, and I suspect it would go really well with spicy foods. I’d say it’s more for pairing with food than for casual drinking.

Poured a clean fizzy gold with a small white head and fizzy bubbles. Malty aroma with some sweetness but thats it. Light malt flavor and done. There is a second component that appears at the finish and that is tartness. Fizzy mouthfeel. Dry finish.

Pours a clear, effervescent pale golden with a clingy-lacing shorter-lived white head. Bland, lightly malty aroma has a hint of oats and soft fruitiness with some earthy noble hops in the background. Overcarbonated airy body starts with some grassy bland bitterness and a clean, dry finish. Drinkable, but very boring.
