A: The beer is hazy yellow in color and has a light to moderate amount of visible carbonation along with a few specks of particles floating in suspension. It poured with a short white head that quickly died down, leaving some lacing on the surface and a thin collar around the edge of the glass.
S: Moderate aromas of bready hops and fruity esters are present in the nose.
T: The taste has flavors of fruity esters along with notes of bready and biscuit malts. Hints of malty sweetness are perceptible.
M: It feels light- to medium-bodied on the palate and has a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: The fruity ester aromas and flavors in this beer seem to be "off" for the style and something you would expect to find in an English Pale Ale.

Won't bother with all the fancy beer snob adjectives. Simply put, Hooker Munich-Style Lager, on tap at a bar in Blueback Square, West Hartford, is the best tasting beer I have ever experienced. I have had it out of the bottle as well and while it was still very good, I was a little dissapointed by it compared to the on tap ones I had.
