The label proclaims that this beer is "brewed according to the reinheitsgebot" (purity standards). My first visit to the smallest brewery I have ever personally visited was nice. I met the owner, brewer, proprietor, president, brewmaster, Mark Sommer, and got a tour of the small but very clean premises. I found that by the bottle or keg was the only option. (I was hoping for 'on tap.') So I purchased one bottle of everything currently available (4). When I arrived home I opened the first, Hayden's Summer Lager. There was a very soft, subtle nose. Very little head. A very delicate, smooth, thin, grassy initial taste. Similar to a Carta Blanca or MGD. NOW I had it: a GREAT lawnmower beer, or session beer. As good as it gets: refreshing, smooth, VERY drinkable. Well crafted - worth a repeat.
