 Ernest (4177), Boulder, Colorado, USA
Dec 16, 2007 Draught, North Star (GABF 2007 week).
Head is mostly diminishing.
Body is medium to dark amber.
Aroma is lightly to moderately malty (cookie), lightly hoppy (flowers), with a note of diacetyl.
Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly acidic, lightly bitter.
Finish is lightly sweet, lightly acidic, lightly to moderately bitter.
Light to medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation.
Not as diacetyl-heavy as the pale ale, but not that much better either. IIRC, this was technically an ale approximation of an Oktoberfest lager.
