blank (999), Washington, Washington DC, USA May 4, 2007 A middle of the road lager. Kinda dull really. It reminded me a little too much of your standard cheap lager to be intresing. I liked the noise and color but the flavor was a little too textbook. radagast83 (1000), Springfield, Virginia, USA May 3, 2007 Draft at Merrifield location. Light hazy coper color, thick white head. Caramels, malts in the aroma. Flavor is slightly citrus, with some fruit and malts. A pretty good lager type of beer, and coming from me that is pretty suprising (lagers make up most of my worst scores). hopscotch (4228), Vero Beach, Florida, USA Jan 23, 2004 Murky, mahagany-colored lager with a beautiful, creamy, white head. Good retention and excellent lacework.
Nose is of citrus fruit, fuzzy fruit and white wine.
The flavor is lacking as the beer is a bit too cold. However, it's perfectly balanced and full-bodied with a dry mouthfeel. Fizzy carbonation. Short, crisp, clean finish. Leaves the mouth feeling parched. I'm not a big lager guy, but I really like this beer. MilkmanDan (1932), Eagan, Minnesota, USA Jan 8, 2004 Hazy copper. Nose caramel, nalty, bit sweet. Caramel, sweet, very malty. Nice stickiness, light but chewy. Very good. jeffc666 (1809), Fairfax, Virginia, USA Nov 14, 2003 Hazy dark amber color. Head is small and off-white. Aroma is fruity with a firm malt behind it. The flavor is dry malt and some ale like fruitiness. Body is medium. Overall a pretty nice beer in a style that is hard to come by, unless of course the bottle says Steam© on it.
