4.08/5  rDev +2.5%
look: 3 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 4
Pours a not quite clear light amber with not much of a head. Sly Fox lagers struggle with head retention. No lacing.
Aroma is pilsner malt with a decent touch of light caramel. Noticable noble hop aroma. Smells inviting!
First flavor is malt, followed by a noticeable hop bitterness. Noble hop flavor comes in last. Pretty good vienna lager!
Mouthfeel is fairly slick with proper carbonation. Pretty good hop bitterness at the end.
Overall, I've had better Vienna lagers, but this one is pretty darn good!

From a 16oz can dated best by 2/21/23 into a tulip.

Pours a translucent golden orange with about half a finger of white head. Very good retention. Ok lacing.

Pretty strong bready aroma and maybe some light earthy bitterness.

Taste is pretty close to the nose.

Mild bready aftertaste. Smooth, wet, full-bodied mouthfeel. Medium carbonation.

Nice beer-a solid lager that is probably more enjoyable in cold weather than warm.

Poured into a grip shaped goblet: color is gold, transparent, head is off white and presents 1 finger thick, head then dissipates to thin top and lacing on the glass sides.

Smell is sweeter malt, light toast, light bread/biscuit, crisp clean hops that are lightly grassy, earthy.

Taste is similar with sweeter malt, toast, bread/biscuit, clean and grassy, earthy hops.

Mouthfeel is moderate carbonation, moderate/stronger sweetness, lighter bitterness.

Overall a sweeter lager, in the vein of their helles with more malt sweetness.
