This arrived as a pale yellow in color with moderate head and good carbonation. There wasn't much noticable in terms of smell and it had a light mouthfeel with a smooth finish. Not bad, but not the first beer that I would ask for. Fortunately, I had it as part of a smapler rack, so there were alternatives available.

Crystal- clear straw hue. The thick well - retained head is indicative of an all barley malt brew. The lemony, Tettanger hop nose is accompanied by a hint of bready grain. Although expectedly light (bland) in flavor, malt notes surface as light bread & hay, while a lightly grassy hop flavor is perceptible. Lightly bodied, but not watery. Finishes clean & refreshing... The whole point is this brew is to quench thirst and not to be savored and it does a good job at that. This is the best light beer I've had. There aren't any offputting adjunct flavors at all, seems to be an all malt brew. Although lackluster it's not nearly as bland as other examples of the sickenly insipid style-- there's actually some hop character going on.
