GreatLibations (1299), Sasquatcho, Arizona, USA Mar 16, 2007 Brew pours a slightly tawny golden color w/ a shallow, semi creamy froth that reduces quickly to a full dusty canopy. Aroma is malty w/ a touch of nuts and no offensive nuances. Light to medium nectar w/ ample residual effers. It has a nice velvety feel to it. The first thing I notice is the lack of offensive flavors. Then the hops kick in. This is a well made lager w/ a moderate hop presence that lingers to the finish. Nice and malty w/ a defined nutty character. The finish is bittered nicely w/ fresh, crisp citrus rind. Overall: this brew is refreshing and clean w/ nothing to complain about. I like the hop profile. I like this better than S.A. Boston Lager by far. Now if I can just get the price down. As I read the Pale Lager style profile, this brew doesn’t fit. It’s more like a Pale Ale. Braudog (3463), Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates Jul 11, 2004 Hazy hellow-orange with a nice poofy head. Musty nose. Lightly spicy with a hint of fruit-rind bitterness. Not bad. Guess I got a good batch. 11026 (1886), USA Nov 19, 2006 Bottle from Craig. Seems like a light amber color, clear with a touch of yeast sediment at the bottom. Fair but fast fading white head, decent lacing. Aroma is lightly grainy, moderate toast and lightly floral/herbal hops. Medium to light bodied. Toasted grain and biscuit flavor, lightly dry, herbal hop bitterness that lingers pleasantly perhaps some slight lemon. This is really pretty tasty for what it is. I could have this as a daily drinker and be very happy with it. turbo (1248), Arizona, USA Jun 6, 2005 Bottle poured light amber with a good white fizzy head.
Aroma of malt and fruit.
Flavor is malt,hops with a creamy finish .
Good easy drinking beer Terminus (1955), Illinois, USA Sep 13, 2006 bottle-man i dont know-maybe i liked this beer because it had been a while since my last. What i thought i had here was a very fresh lager with some great character. lightly cloudy small particulate yellow with a small soapy white head. nose of big grassy/spicy hops fresh and nice! flavors are predominately hoppy with a tinge of pale malt in there. this one cam across not that grainy like most of the style. I really dig this one. under-rated.
