Tap at the Pig and Whistle. Poured a slightly darkish yellow/orange. Nose was muted. Mouthful was crisp, clean and rather refreshing. Decent beer. Not complex but perhaps a good warm up beer.

Pour is a bright gold with a large whtie head. Aroma is some malts with a tiny amount of bitter hops. Flavor is bready with some grassy hops and a nice clean aftertaste. Not complex by any means but quite a refreshing beer. Brings back good memories of my time in Munich.

500 ml bottle poured a clear yellow with a lasting white head. Aromas of bread, light straw and spicy hops. Palate was light bodied and crisp. Flavors of straw, bread and spicy hops with a crisp lingering moderatly bitter hop finish.

On tap. Clear golden colour with a nice soft white head. Aroma of malt and a slight spicy noble hop character. Palate is much the same. A nice clean lager.

Light straw color; Light to medium body; Aroma and flavor primarily of hops, malt, and some barley; Overall, a solid lager - one of my stand-bys when I can find it.

Draft at redlight redlight. Ok, I realize this beer is nothing to write home about, but I feel like it is often a little underrated regardless. This light lager is straight forward and is exactly what it means to be. Not complex, but still refreshing. It can really hit the spot after a long busy night of bartending.
