Commercial Description:
Brewed to be light, crisp and refreshing using four types of German malts. Deliciously hopped with German and domestic varieties, imparting this light beer with flavor. This beer takes the most care, and much more time to condition than any other.

Draft Sample at pub. Pours clear, straw yellow, nice white head. Decent lacing. Nose is corn and skunky light beer. Sweet, fruity taste with mild corn flavor and some bitter. Pretty good light beer. Tasty, crisp and clean.

Ubiquitous pale yellow american lager color and appearance. Has a unique slightly sour and pungent aroma. Taste is somewhat buttery and quite friendly. Cannot believe this is a light beer. Easy to like and at times may seem a bit watery on the palate. Mild carbonation and no bitterness to speak of on the finish. A very nice nice drink if this is truly a lager.

Sample at the brewpub. Pours a clear pale golden color with a thin ivory head with pretty good retention. Minimal lacing. Aroma of grassy hops. Light-bodied and fizzy with mild hops and malt flavors. The finish is effervescent and mildly bitter. Typical of the "starter" Lager at many a brewpub.

Mild beany aroma, grassy hops and light grain. Crisp. Pale golden body with mild haze and white foamy head. Light body with medium-high carbonation. Start with good malt taste and crisp hops. Nice light carbonic acidity and bitterness, reminding me of a macro pale lager but of higher quality. Finish is clean and bitter with mild bitter after. A decent light lager.
