Some apple, light maltiness, slightly sweet, and close to a dadsd pennant ale on the flavor profile. Lighter to medium body. Meh.

Grassy hops on the nose. Pours golden amber with a thin white head. Very balanced honey malts with grassy hops and an earthy bitterness with hints of lemon and finishes very dry. Excellent session beer very drinkable. And great with my burger!

From the tap in a plastic cup.
Clear amber color with a small white head.
Earthy hops aroma, mellow malt and soft orange zest.
Biscuity malt flavor, lightly moldy earthy notes, medium bitterness.
Light-med body, not very interesting and short aftertaste. So so.

Golden brown, thin, light with a taste of wheatish tones. A tad bitter, a tid malty. Very decent summer beer. As one person on Untappd said, ’inoffensive.’ I’d drink it again.

Copper color in the (plastic) glass. Aroma of bready malt and a hint of noble hop spice. Good balance. Very sessionable.

16oz plastic cup draught, $5.25 at the upper west side Shake Shack. Clear amber with small off-white head, fair retention. Toasted malts and sweet caramel, florals behind. Flavor follows suit with not too much sweetness. Finishes dry with bitterness at a 3, no butter. Light body with low prickly carbonation. Good enough with my Burger.
3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Draft. Pours a golden body with a white head. Sweet lagered yeast tones with butter and bread tones. Not very clean, not soft, butter, fruit and grain. Pretty disappointed.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Tap at Gingerman. Pours a mostly clear pale golden with a thinning white head. Aroma is a touch buttery, diacetyl, and fruity ester, light cracker biscuit, toast, cereal, some slight berry and pear. Flavor is toast, light biscuit, pale malts, toast, slight fruitiness with just a slight butter hint from the English yeast, finish is a bit on the slick side from the diacetyl, but it was still ok overall. The light dinner ale was a bit better as it was cleaner and more crisp in the end.
