Bottle: hazy orange with a small white head, rich toasted aroma, watery body, starts and ends barely bitter. The beer smells better than it tastes.

After trying 3 other river horse beers I was not looking forward to their lager. Pours lager yellow with a smallish white head. Aroma is sweet, some faint citrus hops. Flavor is the same. Not offensive.

On tap at the brewery. Of the 4 beers I sampled, I liked this one least. Average in all aspects.

Draft. Thin head with great carbonation which lasts the duration. Aroma is bread, citrus and piney hops. Color is a medium gold. Light citrus flavor, bready malts and floral hops. Some bitterness which become more prominent as the beer warms. Clean finish that is slightly bitter. Decent for a lager. Looking at the other ratings, maybe this stuff should eb enjoyed on draft.

Possibly infected as well. Overcarbonated, skunky and oxidized. Flavor is very light and watered down with a bit of grain-like qualities. Harsh and somewhat sour finish.
