clear yellow, thin fine white head, drippy lace, sweet corn aroma, nice corn flavor with sweetness balanced by enough hops to balance and only give a pleasant bitter finish

Straw body topped by healthy white head. Aroma is sweet, light grassy. Taste is medium sweet, some grassy, light butter, minimal bitterness. Light body, some crispness. Definitely the least impressive of the Legends I have tried.

My Bottom Line:
Honeyed cereals benefit from a noble hop middle in this slick and quiet Premium Lager ot the utmost simplicity.
Further Personal Perceptions:
-A slice of foam sinks into the clear golden.
-There are barely any hops in the finish.
-The body is lean and clean, and appropriately carbonated.
-Malts provide few flavors yet sustain nicely throughout the pint.
-This is inherently drinkable, so I guess they are reaching their goals, but I cannot say it is memorable nor tasty.
On tap at The Green Leafe Café in Williamsburg, VA.

Draft. Pours pale gold, with aroma of malt, hops, and some honey. Tastes malty, sweet, with some honey and hops at the finish. Somewhat light on mouthfeel but extremely smooth and crisp. This is one delicious lager.

Very thin white head. Light pale gold color. Arom aof grass, dirt and carrots. Some honey as it warms up. The taste is celery salt with some metal notes. Also white bread and a peppery finish for a lager. This smooths out as you drink. The mouthfeel is thick. Thanks milkmandan.
