A= golden, some quickly fading white head into decent rimming and lacing.

S= very nice blend of Noble hops and sweet malts, light honey.

T= slightly sweeter than I would prefer but very clean, and nice hops florals and sweet malts, reasonably balanced bitters. Would like to see either less sweetness or more dryness, though.

M= clean, slight sweetness on the tongue, a little syrupy on the follow.

D= nothing to interfere here, session if you want altho despite being satisfying it's not exciting.

A little darker and richer in appearance than the style tends to strive for, the color is a deep dark gold. It's thick, and it manages translucency. The head is soft, nearly but not quite pure white, with pretty good retention and some nice spotting.
The malt is sweet, maybe some white fruits flesh and honey, with an accompanying balance of light floral, leafy and grassy hops.
It comes together pretty well in the taste. It's balanced, and it's even pretty flavorful for a light lager. It does, however, have a little bit of a corn-like sweetness into the finish.
This is every bit as crisp and refreshing as the style offers. It really is a summer beer, if there is such a thing, though I'd consider it to be medium-bodied. It's got the easy drinking, the smoothness (creamy on the end, even), and the crispness that's most desirable on a hot day.
