nice, fresh lager with enough malt to keep it interesting and enough hops to keep it crisp and somewhat quenching.

Golden in color with a thin white blanket of head. Sweet fruity aromas with a little citrus. Quite light, rather generic malts and not a whole lot of hop assertiveness. Drinkable, but a little thin.

Bottle. Gold to amber with a thin head. Light malty aroma, grainy and grassy, with a trace of lemony hop. Grainy malt and light caramel flavors with a timid but competent hop backing. Light to medium bodied, decent substance, but a little overcarbonated. Not a bad choice for football...something easy and sessionable but still pleasing.

12 oz bottle, best by Dec. 08, from LooseCannon - thanks Ron! Hazy gold with a slight white head. Sweet cookie and biscuit nose, light sweet grains. Mildly sweet flavors, biscuity and grainy, with a light floral hop. Floral finish. Not bad.

Not a bad lager, very smooth malt flavor with mild hops. Overall its a very drinkable lager but there are better ones out there.

Pours a crisp golden color with a fizzy head. Smells of dry pilsner malt, hints of citrus and some straw. Tastes very summery with some nice apply hints and touches of pepper. One of my go to summer beers.
