Commercial Description:
Bruce describes his classic German-style lager as "pale gold in color with a blend of Pilsner maltiness and a mild hops aroma. The bitterness is just enough to balance the taste of the malt." Bruce is a former music teacher who began homebrewing 13 years ago when his wife gave him a kit for Christmas. He has since become an accomplished homebrewer and shares his knowledge and passion for beer by teaching classes in homebrewing and beer appreciation.

Nice pour, a rich golden body with a creamy two-fingered head. The aroma is bready with a light grassy bitterness. Nice creamy mouthfeel. Tastes like warm buttered biscuits with an herbal bitter finish. Very drinkable.

Nose is faint butter, light corn meal and almost like a malt liquor. Has a decent cracker and biscuit malt flavor in the finish, but otherwise it’s a bit of a syrupy sweet mess. The more I drink the less I like it.
