I'm rating the 2021 version at 5.8 percent. A Bavarian Lager they call it, with 100 percent Skagit Valley malt. Plenty of foam in the glass, though it could be more sudsy on the tongue. Warm and malty but not overly sweet. Some tangy feeling and a hint of leafy hops in the nose. Overall this is quite drinkable and well-mannered. Roasted grain and caramel with just a tang of bitterness in the aftertaste, which adds to the satisfaction. From the 16 oz can purchased hereabouts.
2022 Update: The current version seems much the same, though I find it very pleasing and drinkable and am rating it a little higher.

Served in shaker pint. Poured clean and clear bright gold color, with about 1/4 inch of white head that dissipated very quickly, and left very light lacing.
Grain had the lead in the nose, with floral hops in the background, and a solid hint of sweetness.
The same on the tongue, but the sweetness was much more notable. In fact, as I went through the pint, the sweetness came to dominate, almost to the point of distraction.
The body was very smooth, but, as one would expect from such a sweet beer, there was a definite stickyness across the palate.
Drinkability was fine, although that sticky-sweetness got distracting about halfway through the pint. Overall, I clearly prefer a drier version of the style, but this was solidly enjoyable. Worth a shot if you see it.
