Columbia, SC - Total Wine - 12 oz bottle. Medium gold - lifeless pour with no head. Mineral water like aroma with some metal pipe notes. Bland lager flavor, brief hint of honey, some metallic notes. Mouthfeel is quite dry. Probably best used to put out fires.

Tasting - Perfect Pour. Sparkling gold, fizzy white head. Faint aromas of toasted biscuit and florals. Initial seltzer water flavors mingle with notes of floral cereal from start to finish. Light bodied and thin with soft carbonation. I can appreciate a good light beer, but this just misses the mark...

Bottle. Pretty simple boring light lager. Little aroma & little taste. Pretty sure they achieved what they were after. Micro macro?

12 oz. bottle pours golden with fluffy white head. No lacing as the head dissipates. Faint aroma of citrus and mild caramel. Light bodied alright, with not much taste to speak of and an easy finish with a somewhat cereal-like aftertaste.

Pale yellow, clear, white head fades into a ring. Aroma is sweet, grainy, touch of rice (guessing here, but that is what it reminds me of). Cereal flavor, some green apple, touch of sweetness on the finish. If attempting to microbrew a standard american light lager, they basically achieved it.

Light apple and citrus aroma. Clear golden color with a small white head. Light sweet fruit in the beginning with a cardboard finish.
