It has a faint hoppy smell to it and your average golden color. Has a little hoppyness in the flavor but also a bitterness to go with it. After taste leaves a bitter, almost like a lead flavor, in the mouth. Overall it’s not a bad beer but I don’t think that I’ll end up buying this one again.

From bottle. Disappointing offering. Watery, uninteresting, slightly sour. No finish. Not one to repeat.

Objectively speaking: A simplistic and inoffensive pale lager
I like: Clean flavour profile. Soft herbal hoppiness.
I dislike: Rather dull grainy malt lineage. The key to this type of beer is to expose the taster to a trove of freshness and this is not quite managed here although no signs of age are noticeable either. Quick-finished.

Not much better than a BMC lager here. Poured to a golden yellow with medium-thick white head that dissipated quickly and left little lacing. Aroma was grainy with little else to offer, and the flavor was no better. Not even a good session beer. Not much good to say about this one.

Had an Altbier from Otter before this and I was pleased with it. Unfortunately, I cant say the same thing about this one. Offensive and the hops are a bit off. This is not properly classified/
