A: Pours with a slight haze. A more golden/orange color. With a two finger white head, good retention and spotty lace.
S: Up front is malty, with English biscuit and bread. Also a fairly pronounced buttery aroma, which reminds me of diacetyl. Just a touch of a lemony hop character.
T: Yeah, I get some buttery diacetyl up front. It doesn't stick around too long, but is noticeable. Then the biscuit and bread like malt character. Just enough lemon like hops to leave a light bitterness.
M/O: A medium body with crisp carbonation. Not as clean as I was expecting. Once I get past the buttery character, its not hard to drink.

This would be similar to Houston Hades if not for the dreaded D lingering around. Considering how much I liked their Hades this is a slight disappointment. Still glad, they are attempting to do some different types of lagers, and will certainly try this again to see it it does get cleaned up a bit.
