Serve in Lager glass

Crystal clear yellow lager. "Blink and you miss it", small, fizzy, white head. Excellent aroma. Very lemony with notes of honey and a dark fruit not yet experienced by me. Tangy and citrusy with lots of chardonnay in the flavor. Light-bodied and very astringent. Dry finish. Very nice!

12 oz. Clear, burnt orange with a lasting quarter inch of creamy head. Frosting all over the glass. Grassy grain, honey and light citrus aromas. Smooth flavor blend has some toasted and buttered whole grain bread, touches of honey, mildly tart apple and lemon. Light body has low carbonation and finishes dryish. Surprisingly good beer that tastes more like an English ale.

Cloudy orange yellow color with a small thin-bubbled head. Bready biscuits with some light fruity notes. Starts and ends slightly sweet. I don't believe that this is a lager.

Delicious, pairs well with lamb. Probably baklava too, will try that next. At a greek festival and this is the greek beer. You people apparently disagree and are stupid. A bit sweet but bit as much as I had worried about.

Golden color, mild nose of baking bread. Malty, finishes somewhat sweet. A decent lager, better than expected.

12 oz bottle. For what I expected from a lager, it exceeded my expectations greatly. This is one of the better ones I’ve had. Good maltiness.

[Bottle] Pours a clear golden color with about a half inch worth of white foam on top. Light aroma of cereal grains and mild grass. Straw, muted citrus, crackers and grains in the taste. Dry palate and moderate carbonation levels. Very nice body for the style. There is not a ton going on flavor-wise here, but the body certainly wins it some points.

Aroma slightly slightly skunky and malty. Taste is sweet with some caramel and spices. Not bad at all.
