Served in a nonic pint glass
This beer pours pale yellow and effervescent. It is loaded with millions and millions of tiny bubbles. It is topped with an inch of white head that leaves spotty lacing.
It smells pretty malty. I get grain, grass, and hints of spice.
The taste is malty with a steeped grain flavor. There is enough bitterness to balance the flavor. The spices are very subtle.
Medium bodied and mouthfeel
I only bought it so I could listen to D12 while drinking it. I enjoy D12 more than this beer. This beer ain't my jam.
