3.94/5  rDev +4%
look: 4 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
Appearance: Pours a completely clear, light golden, yellow color with a strong white head. SRM of 5-6. (4.00)

Aroma: Mild aromas of yeast, pale malts. (3.75)

Flavor: Flavors of yeast, pale malts. Faint citrus, somewhat bland. (4.00)

Feel: Medium body, strong carbonation and yeast. Clean. (4.00)

Compared to Arbeiter HAHA Pils 8/25: Pours similar, milder aromas and flavors. Less lemon citrus. More yeast.

Overall: Working Draft, who makes some excellent lagers. First try at this. The previous reviews were somewhat underwhelming. Nice mouthfeel, but the flavors are somewhat bland. Still drinks nicely. (Rating: 3.94)

Canned June 2023 (exact date smudged); drank 8/4/23 @ the Yarchives.

See-through dull yellow/orange appearance.

A rough pour yielded a big off-white head; strong, frothy lacing remained.

Corn, yeast & pine notes in the nose.

Medium mouthfeel.

Soap & corn flavors up front; dry pine notes on the finish.

Drinkable, but abrasive. Not one I'd recommend.

This is the ch. 5 version.
Medium light, clear gold look. Withdrawn aromas of sharp and tart malt, very lightly toasted. Medium light, noble hop and light toast malt flavors, with a bit of a tang. Drinkable.

Poured from a can into a pint glass. Pours translucent orange with a fluffy white head that dissipates quickly. Smells of plain sweet grain, not as bright, but inviting. Tastes of sweet grain, clean and refreshing, very slight flora. Beer is light bodied, very crisp, good carbonation, goes down really smooth. Overall, a very good beer.
