T: Upfront three are just shy of moderate flavors of bready + grainy + pale malts with moderate amounts of rice adjuncts and a light amount of grainy sweetness. That is followed by light flavors of lager yeast. Finally there are light to moderate flavors of floral hops which impart a very light amount of bitterness which lingers through the finish.

M: Light bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation. Slightly soft with a light amounts of dryness in the finish.

O: Easy to drink with well hidden alcohol and a soft yet still slightly dry mouthfeel. Enjoyable with a pleasantly complementary t floral hop flavor and aroma.
