Bright gold appearance with a medium size white head and good lacing. Subdued, grainy, sweet malt aroma. Sweet malts dominate the taste with some herbal and floral hops adding balance. A light vegetal touch intruded on the palate but not enough to be an issue. Light-to-medium bodied mouthfeel and a short lived finish.

Part of a Stoudt’s variety pack. It poured a crystal clear yellow with a tall foamy white head. There was a nice amount of carbonation bubbles rising up in the glass for a long time. There was a nice clean aroma, somewhat earthy with grass and a light citrus hops scent. The taste was crisp and clean with a nice bite from the hops that lingered for awhile and mellowed towards the finish. For the Helles style this was true to the style and enjoyable to drink.

On tap @ Judges Bench Ellicott City Md-Clear golden pour w/a slight white head. Has a pretty good hop bite, a little grain/grass/hay, maybe a little banana...All in all a pretty unremarkable brew. Not bad, just bland average. You can drink it, but I wouldn’t seek it out. Short hop finish.

Tap @ Monster B’s. Piss yellow body with no head. Clean texture with a dull macro flavor. Nice grassy aftertaste though. Pretty boring, don’t waste your $$$

Situation: First day of school--step one of 180... Glassware: Samuel Smith lager glass... Appearance: Foamy, frothy resistant white head; straw gold color with a thick bath of effervescent bubble, slow and steady... Aroma: Sharp bitter pilsner malts release a bouquet of fragrant floral notes--fresh and robust... Palate: solid, even, medium-bodied but engaging the mouth with strength; drinkable... Taste: crisp malt balanced by enough hops to keep all parts of the mouth appreciative; solidly in line with the style.... Overall: Stoudt’s does lagering right, and Lew Bryson is right to celebrate this offering, with its spring/fall versatility and its by-the-six pack drainability...

Mild grain aroma. Hazy golden color with a small white head. Moderately balanced sweet beginning with a light dry and tart finish.
