Can. Pours a reddish brown color with a rocky small tope head. Nose is caramel, brown sugar, and malt. Taste is matly sweet, caramel, and bread. Not bad actually.

A nice light lager. Faint sweet malt with a light hop bite on both the aroma and body. A light refreshing body with a clean finish.

Clear darkish amber pour with a medium foamy head. Fruity malt aroma, with a hint of hops. Sweet bready caramel flavor. Watery finish. Good, not great brew.

A very nice lager. Mild hops with a strong malt backbone that is not assertive.

The box on this says it’s "arguably" the best American-style amber lager in the county. Arguably is the key word, I could argue with them :). It’s a good beer. Pretty sweet, red-dark beer with very little head. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t enjoy it. Better than average, good session beer. Best in the country? Nah. Best I had today? Sure.

Bottle. Pours a deep clear amber with nice off white head with very good retention. Aroma of floral hops. Flavor reminds me of a hopped pale ale, sweet hints of caramel with citris notes. Has a very slight bitter. Medium-high carbonation....seems that it might have been naturally carbonated. Medium mouth feel....Good beer...

deep amber pour with a thin white layer of froth. almost citrus scent with malts and grass as well. very hoppy taste with a weird cardboard malty taste.
