a - Very light yellow similar to the appearance of an American Light style if you ever poured one into a glass. The edges get real thin and clear in the glass. 1 Finger white head drops quickly but settles to a thin film which looks nice.
s - Slightly sweet, lacks the typical America Adjunct or Light Lager musk but has its own almost vegetable like aroma.
t - Unlike the other two offerings from this Genesis series, the sweet potato aroma and flavor actually work here. It's not as prominent in the taste as it is in the nose. Pretty watery all the way through but seems to have a solid malt backbone which is why I lumped this in the Euro style rather than the American Adjunct style but I have no idea what's in it...for all I know it's 100% corn. Hop presence is low and is not all that crisp. It's a bit malty in the aftertaste and never really drys up. Despite these flaws this is the first of the 3 Genesis brews that I will have no problem finishing...I'm not sure if this one is decent or if this weird house flavor is growing on me but this one will get drunk.
m/d - Slightly stick yet thin. Drinkable but idk what I'd do with 6 of these other than pawn them off on unsuspecting friends.
