16 oz cans canned 9/5/23. *I tried this beer 3 different ways: poured into a tall Lager glass, a nucleated pint glass, and with no pour drinking straight from the can. Only the mouth feel changed a bit each way.
L: Pours clear light gold with steady large carbo bubbles, a thin and quickly dissipating white head that goes to edge foam, light lacing.
S: Bready, grains, distant apple, corn, Pilsner malts.
T: Fruits, light citrus, light apple, wet hay, Pilsner malts, a hint of soft white bread, has a touch of a farm-funk and rural atmosphere, corn aftertaste and a subtle sweetness in the finish.
F: Lightly brisk, medium-light body with a medium-length smooth finish.
O: Very easy drinking. Taste-wise it differs a little from typical examples in the same style but it hits all the targets well. Grain tastes are a wee bit enhanced. Nice balance. It is refreshing and is very good in its style.

Poured from 16 oz can. Canned on 08/05/20. Properly clear beverage with a small head that quickly faded. Hardly any lacing. Aroma of pale grains with a cracker like quality. Only 13 IBUs I am not surprised I cannot detect any hops in aroma or flavor. So this beer tastes sweet but it is a very light bodied beer so I do not mind as much if it was heavier. I detect slight diacetyl. i would of liked some German hop flavor and bitterness for balance and complexity. Also seems slightly under carbonated. I am happy they went out and did a beer like this, but it just was not very well executed.
