Very light tasting but a bit more in the way of malt or barley. See through gold color. Fresh beer. It is okay but don’t kill yourself to get this one.

Kinz (2971) - Glen Allen, Virginia, USA - APR 14, 2009
Draft at brewpub. Very pale light yellow body, clear. Light bread aroma with a flavor that matches. Just enough bitterness to balance, but not any detectable hops. Maybe a hint of spice if you really go looking. Not bad, just sort of a session brew.
