Like the scratch of a Dylan Vinyl or a worn-in pair of Chucks, this toasty lager is a shout out to the classics.

On tap at the brewery.
Clear amber pouring beer with a bit of a white head.
Malty, caramel nose. Tons of caramel. Hint of smoke.
Taste is a malt bomb. Tons of caramel. Layers of caramel, yet light. Slightly roasted. Not getting the smoke from the nose.
Light, bubbly, smooth body.
I am shocked. This is delicious.

12oz can enjoy by 9/25/22 into a 12oz glass.
L: Pours rusty amber cloudy w/a 1/2" off white light thin smooth head down to a thick skin, quite well carbonated, no lacing.
S: Caramel malts, a hint of pine resin, subtle overripe fruit.
T: Caramelized malts, toasted grains, grassy, black tea, lightly bitter w/a linger that goes very wide. There's a light woodiness in the overall taste that is rich & earthy. Quite pleasing.
F: Lightly sharp then a pillowy medium bodied mouthfeel that is quite drying. Moderately smooth & soft.
O: A quenching and flavorful beer nice balance and a somewhat long bitter finish. It is natural feeling, good flavors and is very good in it's style.

12oz can. No dating found.
Slightly cloudy, medium amber colored body. No real head from the pour, but the result is a thin cap of white foam.
Aroma of lightly toasted grain. Has a good barley smell.
Taste is light roasted malts, and a touch of floral and spicy hops. Has a touch of honey.
More than medium mouth feel. Very good carbonation.
A tasty lager with a fuller mouth feel.

Poured from a 12 oz. can. Has a dark bronze color with a 1 inch head. Smell is mild, malty. Taste is full of bready malts, some notes of caramel, hints of nuts. Feels medium/full bodied in the mouth and overall is a decent and highly refreshing summertime beer.
