Taster at brewpub. Copper colored pour, clear, wispy off-white head. Light malty aroma, caramel. Taste is malty, toffee, sweet. Pretty standard Vienna.

Good mouth feel and aroma. Taste is convincing and appropriate for it's name. I like it.

Bottle from the source.
Slightly hazy orange amber color with a decent sized bubbly off white head. Aromas of sweet crackery maltiness, floral spicy hops, and a but too many fruity yeasty esters. The flavor follows the aroma. Bready crackery malt spicy hop and fruity esters. Decent enough to drink, but I'm missing the toasted character, and the yeast didn't seem overly happy in this fermentation.

A-Pours a caramel color.
S-Smells pretty standard for the style. Toasted malts, fruity scent and some smooth sweetness.
T-Well that's definitely a Vienna Lager. Sweet caramel, off-dry toasty maltiness. Light whisper of hop. Light, ambiguous fruity flavor.
M-Light bodied but has a bit of a creamy feel.
O-I enjoy Vienna Lagers. All the flavors work well together. Easy and relaxed.
