Can.
Simple golden ale. Bready and biscuity with some light honey and toasted cracker notes. Faint spice and faint grassy hops. Light bodied. Decent feel. Nothing fancy, but it’s an easy drinking beer.

The appearance was a golden blonde color with a quickly dissipating quarter finger’s worth of white foamy head that left some sliding lace. The aroma had some hay/grassy/earthy dry breadiness. Light features of herbal/floral qualities come in subtly. The flavor tried to have some sort of sweetness, but the earthy/herbal hops play in underneath to offer a decent balanced sort of aftertaste and finish. The feel was pretty smooth all along my tongue, fairly damp with a proportionate ABV to the beer. Crushable on a hot day. Overall, first time I had this was for reviewing purposes, second time I had with their BBQ bacon cheeseburger and that went exceptionally well.
