On tap at Bell's 3/31/13. Fruity aroma. Thin head. Good taste. This is a better lager I have had. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Draught at Bells. 3/31/13. Decent lager taste with hints of fruit and honey. Pleasant.

Draft. Light corn malt aroma. Golden yellow with small head. Sweet corn/barley malt and moderately bitter herbal hops flavor. Better than the average pale lager.

Draft to taster at the Eccentric Cafe. Looks solid; a transparent gold with thin white lacing. Smells semi-sweet and doughy. Tastes like it smells with an average mouthfeel. Not bad, but not good either.

On tap at eccentric cafe. Golden clear yellow pour with a bit of white foam on top. Sour light malt aroma with some earthy, fresh cut grass and soil scents. Sweet macrobrew-like malt bill (think high life) and very smooth, burton salt taste upon finish. Light watery textured palate, sweet flavor and finish was carbon-y. Like a macro lager but a little more complex. Still pretty sweet though

Draft at EC. Poured clear pale color with an average frothy white head that was mostly lasting with good lacing. Light grainy citrus aroma. Light to medium body with a smooth texture and soft carbonation. Light to medium sweet flavor with a light to medium sweet finish of short to moderate duration.

Draft at the Eccentric Cafe. Straw body, thin tight off-white head. Nose of grain and banana. Light grainy, cerealy body, phenolic, with hints of rubber cement, in addition to more pleasant toffee and banana notes.

On tap at the Eccentric Cafe. Very bready aroma, with some barnyard funk involved. Taste is similar, lightly fruity with a little bandaid in the back. Finish is not as crisp as I might have thought but for the style it’s very drinkable.
