Can. Pours a clear reddish amber with a white ring and minimal carbonation. Nose is mainly caramel malts with a hint of hops. Taste is the same. Light-to-medium mouth feel. Comes off more like a Scotch Ale. Meh.

Light amber with a thin white head. Light aroma of caramel and roasted malt. Taste of sweet malt, light fruit and mild caramel. Not much too this one.

Unusual traits for a lager,amber like color,a hint of fruit with the malt ,in the taste, more like a creme ale then a lager, no faults ,just nothing distinctive

this is really a rustic amber lager! ... is smooth and quite a simple liquid ... is similar to an ale in a few ways ... is refreshingly different in the mouthfeel location ... pretty nice stuff but there is something about this brew ... a touch different but it does the job...

Tap. Poured a deep reddish-amber color with a thin off-white head. Faint aroma of light caramel, brown sugar, sweet malts, and light hops. Smooth, sweet malty with some light spice lead into a light fruitiness (light apple, apricot, orange) finishing with a light hoppiness and undertones of soft fruit. Smooth and easy drinking. Probably underrated due to the style, but I thought this was a pretty good beer.

22 oz bomber bottle. Pours a clear, rich, deep amber color with a frothy off white head that produces nice lacing. Aroma is sweet and caramel. You get a good sense of the malt in this thing by the nose. Flavor is heavy on the caramel and pretty sweet, basically just like the nose. Very full flavored and easy to drink. This is a nice beer for pairing with any kind of food or just slammin a few back. I could make this my go to beer very easily.
