"Best by 3/4/24"; drank 12/18/23 @ the Yarchives.
Cloudy, dull yellow/orange appearance.
A rough pour yielded a nice off-white head; strong, frothy lacing remained.
Wheat, orange peel, mild banana & faint pine ntoes in the nose.
Medium mouthfeel.
Soft wheat, mild orange peel & faint banana flavors up front; faint ginger notes in the finish.
It's drinkable & not bland, but it's not overly enjoyable either. It'll do in a pinch.

12 oz. can, best by March 2024. "West Side Ale" but doesn't specify what the beer actually is on the can.
A: Body is crisp golden yellow. Lagery looking. Finger of strong fluffy white froth that leaves good lacing. Doughy & pillowy.
S: Aroma is musty, wheaty, grainy, with soft notes of grass & lemon zest.
T: Crisp, grainy, wheaty.
F: Light-bodied, dry. Crisp, but not quenching.
Overall, drinkable, but not something I would be apt to try again.
