I believe dirty dishwater tastes better.

6/6/04 at Ortlieb’s Brewery. I haven’t had many good lagers, or many lagers at all for that matter. No, the standard American megabrews don’t count as real beer, either. That said, being a microbrew, this beer is quite good as far as lagers go. Not much head, but the aroma was on the sweet side with a very mild hop presence. Initial taste is sweet and citrusy. Finish wasn’t fantastic, but I did like it. This beer is still worlds above Bud, Coors, Miller, etc. It’s not very complex, but it is refreshing.

Pours pale yellow, with medium head. TAstes crisp, smooth, refreshing, with some malt, citrus, and hop flavors.

04.04.04 Tap at Citizen's Bank Park, Philly, PA. Are the Phillies resurrecting old brews? First the Dock Street, now this. Pours a lighter yellow with ample, fizzy, disappearing head in a plastic cup. Not much aroma other than light graininess. Lots of bready malts in flavor; simple, unpretentious, and quite tasty for a ballpark beer. Cheaper than BMC, too! Refreshing (not that I needed that on a cold, wet, day) and could use a touch of dry bitterness at the end. Unassuming and forgettable.

Maize-colored with a grain husk aroma. Standard US lager with a sturdy malt character. OK.
