A hazed brown pour with creamy white head and lace. Flavor is light pepper and sour. Body is fizzy and thin. Just not much of a beer.

Looks and smell is run-of-the-mill. This is pretty good. Not too malt, but a solid body that isn’t too weak or overpowering. Consistent throughout.

Draught at the brewery. Mostly clear amber pour with a small white head. Very light aroma of sweet malt and a touch of hops. The flavour had an odd sourness that seemed out of place.
