I tried this at the brewery. It poured a golden clear with no head and no lace. The scent had hints of grain the taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with grain presence. The mouthfeel is lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall its an ok beer.

Pours maybe a touch darker and with a touch more head than a macro. Smell is almost nonexistent. Taste is a blend of bredy lager malt and faint nondescript hops. Feel is smooth, crisp, and drinkable. Not great, not exactly high quality either. No buyers remorse, but would not buy again unless sharing a pitcher or something.

Picked up a growler for a weekend of house work: poured into a pint glass, color is straw, hazy, head is bright white, presenting about 1/2 inch thick at first then disappearing to a ring.

Smell is mainly pilsner malt then some subtle grassy hops and grain.

Taste is more of a blend of some citrusy hops and pilsner malt with bready notes and crisp bitter finish.

Mouthfeel is a bit sharp on the tongue with some strong dryness.

Overall a good bitter pilsner that is very drinkable.

Crisp and fresh. Super sessionable. Something a bit funny after the first swallow -- not sure if that was the diacetyl mentioned by the other reviewer. Didn't notice it after the first few sips. Great quaffing beer for a hot day (like the one on which I enjoyed it).

$5.75 for the pint. Sampled 23JUN14.

[A] Nice fluffy white head with great staying power. The body is about as light yellow as you can make with grain but clarity is poor as the body is very foggy.

[S] Ughh, diacetyl. Light hop contribution. Fruity, lemony. Hop aroma is not entirely unlike Fruit Loops.

[T] Mirrors the nose with a light touch more graininess. Low hop flavor. Bitterness is way too low as well.

[M] Low-end carbonation. Not crisp. A little watery.

[O] Diacetyl will ruin any beer and this one is no exception.
