Clear,light yellow. Not much of a head. Nose of faint malts and yeasty fruitiness. A fairly sweet lager, not much for hoppiness.......next.

Just like Gusler, I like this brewery but this beer is made solely for lighties. Hardly any flavor or aroma. A Bud alternative. I had mine off the tap but I have to mention those clear bottles. Their other brews come in a brown bottle so I can only assume that they’re aiming for a little light struck skunkiness as part of the style.

I was not the least bit impressed, light in malts and hops. Generally, I like their beers, not bad mind you, just not bold enough for me. Love the label as my daughter has a black Lab that looks just like the dog on the label.
