Had a pint of this tonight at Watch City. I tried to get the exact style, but the bar tender simply said "it's like our Golden, except with more citrus. It's light and crisp." Thanks buddy, I asked for the style, sorry you thought my chick brain couldn't handle the actual style...
I'm adding as a Hefe, but subject to change...
Served in to a pint glass
A: This beer pours a hazy golden color with a 1.2 inch of sudsy head. Head recedes quickly leaving wispy lacing on the glass.
S: Nose is ... lemon grass. Some grain, and pale malt.
T: Taste is like a hefe that someone added a slice of lemon to already (btw - they didn't fruit the beer). Tons of lemon and grass flavoring in the forefront. The middle and finish are one dimensional - all pale malts. Even being one dimensional, the massive drop off in citrus flavoring really works to enhance and show case the light pale malts.
M: Medium body, moderate to high carbonation, slightly oily at first with a very dry finish.
O: They marketed this as a lawnmower beer. That it is and a damn fine one. Goes down easy, tasty, not too filling, decent ABV, since I couldn't get the freaking style...not sure if it's a good representation. It's exactly what they say it is - a lawn mower beer - it has flavor, it's got jump, and I could absolutely pound this beer on a 90 degree, high humidity afternoon.l
