A-Poured into a pint glass 2 solid fingers of white head atop a clear dark golden brew.
S-Nice slightly toasted barley. Bready and slightly sweet. Noble hop aroma.
T-As the smell goes-a malty lager carried with a nice hop flavor. Finishes clean with just a hint of bitterness.
M-Very drinkable. Big bodied for the style with moderate/low carbonation. Flavorful, yet very crisp.
O-Great lager, A style like most BAs, I've lessened my consumption of with so many other styles out there now but this is one that could bring me back from time to time. Not your boring fizzy, flavorless swill.

12 oz bottle, thanks bro- Pours clear golden with a medium white head that holds decently. Aroma is grains, sweet malt, blueberries, very clean. The taste is crisp, clean, refreshing, grains, sweet malt is a bit more subdued than the aroma, all well integrated here. Not bad.

Burnt gold with a soft white froth remaining as a blanket.
Diving right in, the palate exhibits corn, bread, and crisp apple. Faint notes of pear and strawberry add to the toasty notes on the semi-dry finish over a soft, frothy pillowy body. Two Women starts semi-sweet, but finishes with a semi-bitter grassiness.
The aroma adds notes of pungent but light oniony hops, with that classic corn and toast.

Pours an effervescent amber with a pinky of pearl colored head. Decent head retention & lacing
S: A little corny, not much else, a little pear
T: Wet cereal, grassyness, a little dryness up front. A touch of white grape to go with the grassyness & slight breadyness as this warms, Finishes a little dry, crisp with grassyness
MF: Light/medium body with fairly firm carbonation, alright balance
Drinks okay, was expecting something better to sure, hops a re a letdown

On tap at the brewery. Deep golden body. Smells a little bready. Tastes of sweet doughy malts up front and then becomes toasty and bready. Very light spicy bitterness. Finish is mostly bready and lightly sweet malt. Light body. More flavorful than the other lager I tried and just as well made.

Pours a clear gold color. 1/4 inch head of an off-white color. Good retention and decent lacing. Smells of wheat, slight honey, slight floral hops, slight pale malt, hint of sweet malt, and slight grass. Fits the style of a German Pilsner. Mouth feel is smooth and clean, with an average carbonation level. Tastes of wheat, pale malt, caramel malt, hint of sweet malt, grass, floral hops, and slight honey. Overall, good complexity, blend, and body.
