2.1 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
Clear amber with a bit darker tint than your standard lager. Aroma was a touch sweet with caramel malts and a bit of bread. Taste was quite sweet from the malts with a bit of bitterness. If not for that bitterness this rating would be very different. Don’t misunderstand me, it is understated but kept this beer from being macro swill.
1.7 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 7/20
Amber with a quick dissipating head.Grainy corny nose and palate, somewhat sweet. Flat and lifeless
