3.02/5  rDev -18.2%
look: 3.75 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 2.5 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3
No canning date (2023 release); consumed on 10/17/23

Pours a slightly foggy, pale copper hue capped with multiple fingers of sudsy, off-white foam; great head retention leaves a choppy finger of cap, modest, soapy collar, and a haphazard spread of webby/spotty lacing strewn along the walls of the glass.

Aroma opens to taut minerality met with hints of brown sugar and a steady lager yeast underscore, leaving remnants of bread dough lingering through a slightly toasty underscore.

Taste offers minerality and brown sugar upfront, with hints of caramel and burnt bread tones veering acridly bitter past the mid-palate as faded grassiness meets a caramel inflection on the finish.

Mouthfeel brings a medium-light body and a full, spritzy fluff of carbonation; wavering dryness is met with a subtle grit over the mid-palate, persisting into a semi-clean finish marked with touches of quasi-bittering through the swallow.

Messy presentation borne from a disjointed malt profile trending awkwardly earthy, a Märzen shows in spots here somewhere; what is prevalent, though, is not very well-done.
