Butterscotch nose, pale copper color, low head. Perfumy mix of sweet malt and hops. Oily mouth feel. Not good at all.

A slightly substandard generic lager. While this has a bit of a hop backbone, it’s a pretty flavor-challenged brew. Has a mite of skunkiness that gives it some flavor, however good that might be. The palate is actually a mite on the creamy side, which I didn’t expect but did somewhat enjoy.
