3.54/5  rDev +0.6%
look: 3.25 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 3.5
Appearance: Pours a fairly clear, light yellow-hued body with a smallish, white head.

Smell: Lightly bready, lightly grainy with traces of apple, soft florals and a little additional hint of fruitiness from the hops.

Taste: As with the aroma, a little bready, grainy with a thinned honeyed sweetness. A hint of apple precedes the lightly floral, fruity hops and balancing bitterness, though there is some semblance of sweetness hanging around for the finish.

Mouthfeel: Medium-light body. Medium-bodied.

Overall: It'll do. The perfunctory, partnered-with-blank-organization, light-leaning lager in the portfolio.

Zipline Brewing Co. "Dear Old Nebraska Brew"
12 fl. oz. can "BEST BY 04-21-23 1571" and sampled on 12-22-22
$1.99 @ Hy-Vee Omaha #1, Omaha, NE

Notes via stream of consciousness: A hazy golden body is capped by a half inch of bright white foam. The aroma is malty sweet with a smear of non-specific hops. The taste is fuller than the aroma suggests. It's bready, sweetish, fruity with apple and some sweet red berries, and lightly grassy, floral, and herbal. I'm a little bit surprised that this is a lager as the fruitiness makes it appear more like an ale, and there's not a touch of lager yeast sulphur. A stiff bitterness does it's best to balance it, leading to a semi-dry finish as the malt steadily erodes from the palate and the herbal, grassy, and earthy notes come forward. It's at least balanced enough that it doesn't build up to become sticky or cloying. In the mouth it's medium bodied and gently crisp. The head retention and lacing aren't great but it's still better than average. This is intended to be an easy drinking beer and it meets that goal although a little bit of refinement is needed.

12oz can. Poured out a pale, golden color with a small, off-white head of foam. It left minimal lacing on the glass. It smelled of toast, biscuits, floral notes and citrus. Sweet caramel taste with some toastiness. Mild bitterness.

Pours pale gold with a decent head.

Cereal/adjunct sweet aroma balanced by a bit of grass and floral. Corn apparent on the tongue, but not offensive. Light flavor. Very drinkable owing to good carbonation.

Good for what it is.
