Crisp, and refreshing. A light-bodied ale, brewed with German Pilsner malt, organic brown rice, and German Opal hops.

On-tap at Stoddard's Fine Food & Ale, Boston, MA
A: The beer is relatively clear yellow in color and does not have any visible carbonation. It poured with a short white head.
S: The taste has light aromas of pilsener malts and sweetness.
T: The taste has sweet aromas of rice along with hints of pilsener malts.
M: It feels light- to medium-bodied, very smooth, and slightly creamy on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer is nice and smooth on the mouthfeel and easy to drink. The rice had a pleasant sweetness and didn't taste like adjunct malts.
Serving type: on-tap

Tap. Looks a bit more like a pale ale. Some of that cream soda cloud but more vibrant. Not able to pull much off the nose early. Hint of lactose basically. Flavor is also mild. Good carb and some stick.
