Commercial Description:
This smooth lager strikes a delicate balance between malt and hops in the aroma, palate, finish and body. It has more body and less hops than a Pilsner, and less malt and more hops than a Munich style lager. 30 IBU.

A typical dortmunder. Medium body, not really hoppy, slightly citric. Enjoyable but nothing to writhe home about

From a 12 ounce bottle - Pours a clear pale yellow with a tad of red. Below average carbonation, and only slight lacing. The aroma is dominated sweet malts and mild piney hops. First sip is surprisingly mild but balanced with not much else going on. A light malt backbone is welcomed. Some hoppy bitterness is present but on a whole this is only fair.

pours a clear gold with full white head, good full bodied beer with subtle dryness in back and character behind this light session. good grab.

Getting my notebook online. Bottle. A rich gold amber. Smells malty sweet. Sweet malt tastes with fruity hints and a bitter finish.
