16oz can. Bottom stamp is 'PKGD ON: 04/01/24'. A little over a year in the can.
Partly cloudy, pale gold colored body. One finger of white head with the pour, and this retreats to an interrupted cap and solid ring. Leaves behind horizontal rings and interrupted webs of lacing.
Aroma of grass, hay, white bread crust, lemon, and red berry.
Taste is concurrent with the nose, with flavors of hay, lemon, white bread crust, and red berry/red currant. Fade out in the aftertaste is rather quick but goes to the lemon and berry flavors last.
Medium mouthfeel. Very smooth. Clean finish. Very good carbonation.
The level of tartness is unusual for style but a good contributor here.

Aroma is fresh lager yeast and grains/malts. The flavor is grains/malts, very mild bubblegum/bananas, fruit and a slightly sweet/tart/hoppy/beery finish
