2.4 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Pours pale golden with a somewhat lasting, white head; aroma is light malty, sweet, caramelish with bland hop presence and hints of citrus; flavor is quite malty (for what it is), sweet caramelish with light bitterness in the finish turning a bit rough and harsh in the unusually longlasting aftertaste; body is almost medium with moderate to high carbonation. A bit too sweet to really be refreshing, but well above average tasty pale lager.
