(12 oz can, canned on 05/23/22; purchased single off shelf... poured into a 14 oz mug)

L: brilliantly-clear, pale yellow-amber liquid; way too explosively-high, yet silky, almost nitro-tight, dimpled foam crest; don't know what they add (Miller's hop extract?) to this, but it looks impressive with its snapshot hold... oh schisse, there's a bit of swirling sediment in this?! - it doesn't say it's can conditioned... laces pretty nicely

S: sulfur-y, mildly yeasty-doughy top notes, with a subtle lemon-pepper accent... almost a lactic tang overtone... overall nearly vibrant intensity; obscured expression

T: kind of an adjunct lager, 'beery' foundation, with a floury, doughy finish, grassy-herbal hop bitterness swelling up in the aftertaste... the malts are relatively rich, but delicately snow-white in their character, quite 'floury' or more shortbread cookie-like as it goes and residual flavors build

F: bit of a silky swell up front; it's of course well-carbonated, so the sides of the palate become inflated, prickles the tongue too... kind of digging its cloud-weight airiness and argula peppery green bitter bite

O: has this (for the first time?) on tap at the brewery a month ago, and I do believe that tall glass was served way too cold, as this actually nearly tastes like a different beer... it's pretty good, like most of their brands... definitely has a summertime-type of flavor (1966)

 

Pours a bright sparkling straw gold. Moderate head that dissipates slowly leaving a noticeable film across the top of the beer.

Light cereal grains, mild floral notes and small punch of lemon on the nose.

The malt on the tongue is very light giving more space to some gentle floral and grassy notes. The lemon is there as well on the finish, but subdued. A mild sweetness is present.

The sip produces a crisp bite that I love, and it leads to a quicker than normal finish.

I quite liked this. Very gentle/mild and subtle

A - Hazy pale gold color with thin soapy white lacing.

S - Cereal grain with light honey malt aroma.

T - Honey malt, cereal grain, and light citrus. Ends balanced with a slight nod to the sweeter maltier side. Leaves a sweet grain residue in the mouth.

M - Medium body with prickly carbonation.

O - Nice to have tried, not sure I'd buy it again.

 

 

Pours a very pale straw color, not perfectly clear, slight haze to it. Some pretty nice retention and lacing.

Smells snappy citrus, little graininess, cracker and some subtle floral smells.

Taste is heavy in the cracker, followed by faint honey and the same touch of florals as the aroma.

Body is light, smooth and very clean finish. Goes down down incredible easy and each sip begs for the next.

A very well made local lager, give it a try if you come across it.

A: pours a straw yellow body with a pretty thick white head with decent retention and lacing.
S: subtle, light toffee notes with hints of honey
T: sweet, slightly honeyed malt notes
M: light, crisp and refreshing
O: ok overall; decent. Good summer beer.

A clear crisp beer that is perfect for summer bbq, or chilling in the backyard. Not too much kick so you could have a couple.

 

Ultra pale, nothing special. Not bad but not great. It reminds me of the kind of beer your dad would pack the cooler with for the family picnic.
