The Whatcom County wilderness is calling, so we must brew. Van Zandt is a classic American Light Lager crafted to celebrate our community's active outdoor lifestyle. A low hop bitterness and a classic lager malt composition make Van Zandt Light crisp and crushable.

Clear golden amber with plenty of foam in the Pilsner glass. Clean aroma and pleasing beery nose. Modest flavors of grain with an herbal note. Straw and biscuits and a hint of something hoppy. Nice bitterish twang in the aftertaste.
This is actually better than a whole lot of Lagers and other lighter brews. It's a good one for the lower-alcohol end of the spectrum. I'd be inclined to keep some of this around. From the 12 oz can, and it's several months old so there's another good point.

Pours a clear golden straw color with plenty of fizzy loosely formed white head that rapidly fades. Aroma is moderately grainy with faint biscuit notes. Taste mostly follows the nose. Light and crisp with a nice blend of malts & hops. Not much bitterness. Decent amount of carbonation. Very easy drinking.

Served in shaker pint. Poured a bright, clean, clear light gold color, with about 1/2 inch of white head that had good retention and lacing.
The aroma was light grain and gentle hops.
Same on the tongue, just a solid beer flavor, that doesn't lean too heavy in any direction.
The body was light and crisp, with a semi-dry finish.
Drinkability was very good, you can easily knock back a few while watching a ball game or sitting by the river or lake.
Overall, a nice take on the style. Worth trying if you see it.
