Appearance - Pours a light copper with three fingers of foamy white billowy head.
Smell - grassy hops, bready malts, citrus, hint of caramel.
Taste - Pleasant bitterness from the grassy hops followed by the bready malts and caramel.
Mouthfeel - Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Finishes with a pleasant bitterness.
Overall - A spot on American pale lager. A combination of the pleasant bitter grassy hops, bready malts, and caramel make this brew an enjoyable one.

22oz bottle. IPL (India Pale Lager) - now this is an emerging style that I can get behind!
This beer pours a mildly hazy, medium bronzed amber hue, with a rising tower of puffy, rocky, and densely foamy eggshell white head, which leaves some stellar webbed mitochondrial lace around the glass as it slowly and surely recedes.
It smells of bitter floral and grassy hops straight off, with some grainy, crackery, and slightly biscuity pale malt, white chalk, hard water, and a bit of perfumed alcohol. The taste is more malty in its disposition - semi-sweet bread and dough, a touch of sugary caramel, and wet saltine crackers - with a simmering, almost acrid bitterness, one which comprises a heady leafy, weedy, and grassy hoppiness, some understated stoniness, and a growing floral perfumed essence.
The carbonation is fairly tight and zippy in its grip on my upper and side palates, the body a solid medium-heavy weight for the, ahem, style, and actually smooth, more or less, these particular hops not the overly intrusive sorts, it would appear. It finishes pretty dry, the bitter, edgy hops really starting to wear away at the otherwise perky malt sweetness.
A typical, and thus enjoyable version of the hoppy lager intended here, i.e. one with IPA leanings, sure, but a thing all unto its own. Bitter, grainy, and floral, is how I would relate this to anyone who hasn't yet had at least a few of this sort of thing. With apologies to Mssr. Sixx, long lost is the wishing well, when you take a trip on this latest iteration of the wildside.
