This beer comes courtesy of the legend who added it, woodychandler. Poured from a 16 oz. can. Has a golden color with a 1 inch head. Smell is of bready malts, a touch of sweetness. Taste is the same as the aroma, although the flavor has more sweetness. Feels medium bodied in the mouth and overall is a refreshing and solid beer.

This is a bit of an oddball for The CANQuest (tm) in that it was a three-way CANlaboration & each CANlaborator released their own version in a different CAN! I am not terribly proud of the current pic & since I was able to score a seCANd CAN, I may redo the effort in the hopes of achieving greater clarity.
From the CAN: "Brewed in collaboration with our friends at Bunker Brewing and Pipeworks Brewery"; "Come visit us and our tasting room [-] Interboro Spirits & Ales 942 Grand St. Brooklyn, NY 11211".
I was curious to have this one since it did not appear on the Interboro website. Would it truly be an "American Lager"? The only way to find out was to begin with a Crack! of the vent. Given my success in that regard, I proceeded with a slow, steady C-Line Glug that raised just under two fingers of dense, foamy, rocky, bone-white head with very good retention. Color was Straw-Yellow (SRM = > 2, < 4) with NE-quality clarity. Nose had a pronounced biscuity maltiness & now my mouth was watering. I am an unabashed AIPA man, but as a lifelong Pennsylvanian, I CAN appreciate Lager-style beers! I should have gotten some hand-twisted pretzels to go with this one, but I'll just have to forge on without any. 8=( Mouthfeel was thin-to-medium, not watery, but super-soft, like they may have treated the water for this beer. True to the style, this was a simple beer, not noticeably hopped, although the malt(s) was/were perhaps more assertive than the style allows for. I got a pleasant bready/biscuity sweetness in this beer, but it was fine by me. Finish landed in that twilight zone between semi-sweet & semi-dry, but it was highly quaffable & quite refreshing, The only drawback was that at its price point, it was kind of spendy for a Lager, rendering it a novelty more than a cooler-filler. YMMV.
