Light clean pale yellow with white head. Aroma is a non-exhistant malt grass. Clean watery palate. Wow what fun... Nonoffensive. I’m sure that is what they wanted.

A poor quality beer, metallic watery,sour dry finish. no aroma nor taste. Some herbal quality and sourness. Overcarbonated. Everything you don’t want in a beer. Save for a macro blind tasting. At the brewery on tap.

Thanks Leigh A! Pours transparent gold with a one inch foamy white cap. Some lacing, but not a lot. Grassy aroma with some paper, faint hops, straw/hay. Taste is mildly hoppy with herbal/grass flavours, watery hops and some sweet malt. Spritzy finish. Pretty good for a light.

Pours a light gold with a 1 finger cap that has moderate retention and light lacing. Well carbonated. Aromas of boiled grains, slight sourness ( from real lager yeast) and some grassy smells Medium-light body, thin, sandy mouthfeel. Light malts up front become balanced by a light lemony decernment from the hops. Clean finish with light bready tones and a final hop dryness. A pleasant all-malt light beer with a flavor profile approximating a light edelhell. A premium light beer.
