COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This wonderful hoppy lager is a new addition to our ever-expanding Exponential (Seasonal) Series. The Crystal hops give it a clean spice while the Calypso hops give it a pleasant, almost fruity aroma. Easy to drink, perfect for a summer day out.

Vanilla, coriander and floral hops on the aroma. Decent gold in color with a thin foam top. Citrus and coriander on the aroma. Decent carbonation with a light caramel maltiness in the back. Overall, pretty flavorful for a lager. Lots of citrus and fruitiness. I’d give this a B- rating.

Beardface (1509) - Eugene, Oregon, USA - JUL 12, 2012
Draught. Clear, light yellow pour with a fluffy cap of white foam. Smells and tastes grainy with lemon and some straw-like notes. Thin, not particularly enjoyable.

Nickls (1654) - SE DC, Washington DC, USA - JUL 10, 2012
Tap. Very fluffy white head that last like it had a nitro pour, on a clear yellow orange. citrusy hops, light lagery sweetness and cereal. Lightly citric hops, clean, touch of dough. Light soft body. Refreshing and ok, just not terribly interesting.

boFNjackson (3573) - Portland, Oregon, USA - JUL 4, 2012
Bottle... Poured pale, golden/yellow-ish with a white head. Nice lacing. Nose had a ton of hop characters, and a hint of sulfur. Well carbonated, lots of hop flavors and moderate bitterness. Floral, grassy, resinous hop tones. Clean and low esters. Crackers, biscuits, and a light sweetness.

ekoerper (548) - Iowa, USA - JUL 2, 2012
Aroma: light pils malts, bread dough, spicy hops, grass. Pours clear, light golden color, white head with average retention and good lacing. Flavor: grassy, spicy hops, mild bitterness, light pine note, light grains with a hint of sweetness, crisp and refreshing. Light body, medium carbonation. Very enjoyable session beer.

TURDFERGUSON (3565) - Carrboro, North Carolina, USA - JUN 28, 2012
Bottle. Dull golden with a thick foamy white head. Nose is very dry-grassy, herbal, light pine; very similar to Victory Summer Love. Some hints of honey and sweeter malts appear upon further sniffs. Flavor has some mild sweetness with some herbal, grassy, light butter. Mouthfeel is pretty spot on I gotta say. Though the bitterness does linger on my tongue for quite a while. Solid beer. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

cmonster (897) - Portland, Oregon, USA - JUN 19, 2012
Draft. Pale yellow-orange with a short head. Light sweet nose of pale malt and corn. Light sweet, medium bitter flavor. Light plus body, creamy-oily texture, and a long hoppy bitter finish. Very well done.

smm (15) - Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA - JUN 18, 2012
Clear piercing yellow with almost no head. Super grassy with a bit of sweetness on the nose. Grassy hoppy bite which fades quickly, not overly sweet. Well done for a crisp summertime lager.

5000 (4967) - Hardened Liver, Washington, USA - JUN 15, 2012
Bottle:   Shade darker than straw, slight haze, moderate white frothy head, nice lacing.   Hoppy straw nose, a little dank and musty.   Grassy on the tongue, with a bite.   Subtle hops, not bright, certainly an edge to it.   More like a lager on the backside, a touch grainy and mealy.   Comes across as a little flat to me, not bad but a little boring.   Its like the bad half of Pale Ale and Lager.   Body and mouthfeel are moderate.   Lingering grassy, grainy, mealy hop bitterness.   Meh... would prefer a straight Lager over this one.   Not bad, but not my thing.

cbkschubert (2867) - BFE, Arizona, USA - JUN 13, 2012
22 oz. bottle from Total Wine - Pours a crystal clear light golden color with a one finger white head. Very light lacing. Aroma is herbal and grassy with a hint of skunk. Very nice. Flavor is grain and herbal hops. The hops linger a bit in the finish. Nice balance. Light to medium body. A good Lager.
