Gold color and nearly clear. Moderate starting head but it settles to rim bubbles. Good one half ring of lace. Minor spots thereafter.

Sweet for the style with very little hop nose. Smells like berries.

The taste had a more pronounced hop presence, but it still is sweeter than I'm used to. The malt is solid, providing an expected body. The carbonation is also as one would expect. Overall, an innocent pilsner.

Had a couple of pints @ the local Moxie's.

Lager like, but slightly more of a straw yellow than the usual piss yellow macro lager. Not much head to speak of, but then the tend to fill pints to the brim here. Some fine lacing noted.

Metallic grains and slight grassy hop aroma.

Taste follows nose except this brew has some slight buttery notes that add to the overall flavour profile.

Fairly smmoth, light to medium light in body. Carbonation is in balance too.

Vastly preferable to a glass of say Coors lite or a domestic lager.

A very fine beer brewed exclusively for Moxie's Classic Grill by Sleemans.
I found this very fine ale by accident...so nice things can happen.
A very clear mid golden hue with active carbonation. The head was a bit better than one finger with fair retention. The eventual lacing, ring and cling were very impressive. The body full.
The taste initially was well balanced.. followed by a nice hoppy bite to end. My compliments.
