It pours much like a lager, with a white head on top of a light, bright and fairly clear amber. The erstwhile contents of a pint can now temporarily reside within a clear glass liter mug. It was a little foamy at first, but it settled quickly. It smells like a Lager. In general, only very sensitive noses can pick one in the category from an other. You know, malt, hops and yeast, all in light doses. Credit here, as it's taste is a bit fuller than the adjunct variety and the hoppy bite at the finish is well more than most. It's a good clean piney bite and unlike too many modern IPAs, there's no fruit character to choose to describe. This is not some mass produced lager, as it's hoppier than the average beer drinker would accept. Its backbone isn't any better than some of the adjuncts. But, neither is it any worse than the better ones. The hop bite makes this a recommendation to those that like a hop hit in a light medium, without adding several other issues to drink through. Even ale lovers should be accepting of this lager.

 

poured from a 16oz can packaged 09/23/22 into a veil willi becher pint glass. pours a fairly clear straw gold with a little over two fingers of soapy white foam. earthy, almost spicy, hops with some corn and grain on the nose. taste follows with a less spicy hop presence. very clean and easy drinking. well carbonated with a drinkable mouthfeel that doesn’t finish light or watery. reminds you that you’re drinking a well crafted lager. really good stuff.

Can from Merchants Oct 2022

Starts off sweet-ish, but that transforms into some hoppy bitterness after a second or so. Excellent beer for drinking, which is why beer exists. Also has an excellent label.

 

Presentation: 16 oz. can with the canning date printed on the bottom. Served in a Willi Becher glass.

Appearance: The one and a quarter finger white colored head stays around for a while and leaves behind a lot of thick, patchy lacing. It's a very slightly hazy, very bright, polished gold color.

Smell: It's a sweet, warm, malty aroma with flowery notes in the background that's simple but pleasant.

Taste: It's a very well balanced flavor profile that starts with sweet, bready malt but a strong-ish hop bitterness cuts through right away. There's a lot of flowery hops on the palate as well which is nice.

Mouthfeel: Medium bodied, mildly creamy and quite crisp with high carbonation.

Overall: A very easy to drink, tasty and refreshing lager. That's it.

The beer pours a nice and foamy white head that dissipates fairly quickly while the beer itself is a clear golden yellow. It looks really nice.

The smell is good. The hop is is light and bitter with a slightly sweet and bready malt note comes out strong and in front.
The taste follows the smell but with a slightly more toffee in the taste. . The feel is good. It has a medium body with a clean and refreshing finish to it.
Pretty good for a lager and worth trying.
