Aroma and taste are both focused on biscuit and bread, caramel and cherry. The dry finish has some floral and citrusy hops, but balanced, not bitter. Relatively light body with ample carbonation. Essentially an easy drinking Vienna. I hope this is a big success for Fulton.
Reviewed off a sample bottle (full bottle), and I look forward to buying a 4 pack of tallboy cans.

S: medium to medium low spicy, floral hop aromas with a hint of pine seasoning light malt.
L: beautiful, brilliant copper amber with streams of bubbles rapidly rushing to the surface to produce a thin, sudsy white head that rapidly reduces to a film.
T: wide array of malt flavors ranging from doughy bread to light biscuit roll over the tongue. Malt and hop spiciness combine and there is a faint fruit note. It starts with a light sweetness but by mid-palate hop bitterness grows to medium leading to a crisp dry finish and a lingering malty bitter aftertaste.
F: The body is medium to medium light and the carbonation is medium.
O: It is a flavorful, easy to drink lager brewed for those who want more than fizzy yellow beer.

A thanks to the amazing woodychandler for this beer. Poured from a 16 oz. can. Has a golden.orange color with a 1 inch head. Smell is of malts, honey, some grains. Taste is the same as the aroma, and highly refreshing. Feels medium bodied in the mouth and overall would be a great backyard beer during the summertime.

Deep golden, one finger off white head. doesnt look like piss water like most american lagers of this ilk. Smells of sweet malt and Floral hops. The taste is lots of grain, wheat/corn? again backed up by slight floral hops, just a touch of bitterness but its hidden behind the grain. At 4.5% abv this is an everyday easy drinker. Im very impressed and will probably always have some in my fridge. Absolutely a winner

Look - Medium orange color. Off-white head, pillowy, with good retention.
Smell - Grainy, toasted bread, spicy, herbal hops. Smells like Vienna lager.
Taste - Medium sharp bitterness up front, earthy, spicy and herbal. Sweet grainy finish with a lingering bitterness.
Feel - Medium carbonation, could be a touch higher.
Overall - Good drinking beer and a great value at $5.99/4-pack. This will join Wonderstuff as a go-to local lager for me.

It was so hot this September day (91) that I drank it straight from the can. A very clean, cracker malt aroma. Very simplistic flavor of clean and crisp malt that seems like a Pils sans hops. Has a bit of zest to keep it interesting. Refreshing with light carbonation.

Happy New Cut a Single in Minneapolis, MN Beer Sunday (Week 668)!
As usual, I have a planned theme for today. Here in PA, we get distro from seemingly everywhere & it is tough to keep up with all of the newest releases. It is even more spectacular that they are coming to us in CANs for the furtherance of The CANQuest (tm). Let the fun CANtinue!
From the CAN: "Minn Made"; "Genuine All-Malt Beer"; "Extraordinarily Uncomplicated."
I have known a couple/few Minn maids, so I will toast them following the Crack! Thus acCANplished, I began a nice, slow, easy Glug which still produced a finger of fizzy, foamy, tawny head without any coaxing on my part and with decent retention. Color was a gorgeous solid-Amber (SRM = > 7, < 9) with NE-quality clarity. Nose had that clean smell of biscuity, bready, honeyed malt that always makes me think of fresh biscuits drizzled with honey. Mmm. Standard? I wish! Mouthfeel was medium, big for a Lager. The taste was both honey-sweet and Noble hops-grassy/hay-like. It was a very clean, non-adjunct laden Lager that used to be the Pre-Pro Standard, but is usually NOT the case in this day & age. This was wonderfully tasty & quite quaffable. Finish was semi-dry & highly refreshing. I CAN easily see drinking this one on a hot, humid summer's day. Well done!

Fulton's Standard Lager pours a clear copper color. The head is a solid cap of white foam that lingers awhile. The aroma has some light caramel, some toasty mat, and a whiff of floral hops. The taste is similar to the aroma, but much more pronounced. The mouthfeel is medium-light bodied with appropriately ample carbonation. Overall, this is a really well made beer. I can see myself drinking this on a very frequent basis.

Nice flavorful full lager. Darker gold to amber and mostly clear. Smallish white head. Rich grainy taste with balancing bitterness & full mouthfeel for style. Not a quick thirst quenched but a slower easy drinker. Is smaller than it feels.
