On tap at Keegan. I was surprised that this was on tap actually, as I had called the day before asking about their tap list, and this wasn’t mentioned. So oddly enough, I was excited to get a light yellow fizzy looking beer. It pours just as mentioned, light, yellow, and fizzy, with wisps of a white head sitting on top. Aromas are virtually non-existent, though I thought I picked up a hint of roasted/toasted/burnt malt, even maybe a hint of smoke. Flavor is light, and crisp, with a little bit of wheat and yeast. Finishes pretty much the same, with a light amount of bitterness. Overall this made me think of someone brewing something like Bud, but actually putting in some effort to make it palatable and good. It’s still a light, fizzy yellow beer though, but it’s easy drinking and relatively inoffensive.

On tap at the brewpub today for lunch with the Wife. Pours a slightly carbonated (the Barkeep said they just hooked it up this morning) medium yellow. Light straw nose. No lacing. but not bad for the pre meal brew. light in bod and character. but still has a diluted hop presence. Easy drinkin.
