Sampled at Valhalla. Could of sworn this read Two Brothers Dog Days Light Lager... which makes sense - This was light.. But if that pops up on RB send me a message and I will amend. Pour is light gold. Tastes light, biscuity, grainy. A bit dry on the palate. Deserves no such praise.. Odin would not be pleased.

On cask at Blind Tiger. Aroma is of grainy malt and mixture of floral and fruity hops. Flavor is a bit sweet with more notable fruits. Nice brew.

Cask at BT. Aroma of huge cracker malt, grains, leaves, freshly mowed lawn, pulpy fruits. Flavor of citrus (lemon), green grass, biscuit, angel food cake, citrus peel. Complex and a joy to drink.

On gravity keg at Blind Tiger. Pours a cloudy orange with a white head. Aroma of sweet fruit and orange peel. Flavor of light, sweet lager malt, nice citrus hops, and wheat/bread. Nice and refreshing. A pleasant surprise. 7/4/8/4/15 (3.8/5)

Bottle thanks to Rciesla. Pours light golden with little head. Lager has little to no aroma and flavor is very light. Not bad but has little to offer.

Clear gold pour with a rather scant off-white head. Pronounced malt aroma with a pronounced but not unpleasant creamed-corn character. Flavor leads with some noble hops, a bit of a pineapple edge to this, but the beer is mainly malty. Malts have a caramel-butterscotch character. Some vegetal notes on the finish. Medium body, a bit of a bite at the front, somewhat mouthcoating after the fact. The buttery and caramelized elements stand in the way of this one feeling refreshing for me.

12 oz bottle courtesy of the Binnys Singles Rack (Orland Park, IL). Pours a clear light gold, moderate offwhite head that is bubbly and lively, well carbonated body. Aromas are pilsner type stinky and bready malts, faint spice, grassy and earthy hop bouquet with light florals, very Noble. Initial is Light bodied, well carbonated, mixing liberal bread, light caramel, a bit of stinky Pilsener in there. Grassy and earthy hoppiness, light bitterness throughout, this brew is fairly light, a bit of staleness works into the bread, caramel is small but comes out further into the body, with a snap of bitterness to follow. It is what it is, not my favorite style but a decent summer sipper.
