From a growler.
Ranter a complex aroma with a heavy malt character with a sourness at times and a bit of hops. Enjoyable, but not what I'd expected for style.
Dark gold. Clear to almost brilliant. Smallish white head with a average stamina and a little lacing.
Rather heavy malt character to taste. Bitterness kicks in middle and stay present until the finish which is somewhat dry. Taste sems a little less comlex thatnthe aroma. Farily heavy sourness.
Feel is rather thick and heavy and smooth, and not particulary lager like.
I'm judging based on eg. of style more than whether I liked it or not (which I did). Just hard to make a lager with an ale yeast.

Clear medium gold color, topped off by a sizable white head that fades to a 1/4" for the duration of the beer. Some lacing on the sides of the glass. Smell is very light of hops, with malt coming in as a very light bread smell. No skunk and very little grassiness detected in the nose. Taste is skunk free, crisp and very clean. The lack of extremely grassy malt is a welcome change after many of the green-glass euros I've had. Malt is very present and satisfying. A well rounded beer.
