Had on tap. Brown cloudy body with a white ring and lazy lacing. Grains, grass, biscuit malt, and earthy hops, no typical springy aromas for style. Taste is bland up front and harshly grainy and bitter on the backend, flavors clash and leaves a repugnant bitter and harsh grain note on the finish. Feel is broken down before harsh notes, bland malts and watery body, finish is not artful or springy like style should. Misses the mark

Review from notes taken on 2/18/11. On tap at the Harrisburg ABC location.
Served in an oversized mug, this brew appears a light clear copper orange color with a finger of white froth for a cap. The head retains fairly decent and laces in a spotty wall about the glass.
The aroma of this brew has quite a bit of herbal and mineral character overtop of some hop notes which come across lightly citrusy and grassy. There is a minor note of buttery diactyl mixed with sulfur that isn't all that appealing. All together the nose is a bit of a disjointed mess.
The taste includes light mineral character overtop of some buttery notes that get masked by some flavors of caramel malt. This brew has a modest bitterness for a lager. Faint grassy hop character lingers in the mouth with a touch of citrus. The combination of lingering sulfur mixed with mineral flavors is a bit troublesome and hinders the enjoyment and drinkability of this brew.
This is medium bodied with a modest amount of carbonation. It went down easy while it was very cold, as the flavors come up as the brew warms it is a task to put down. This is not something I would have a glass of again.
