Another beer from the beer of the month. Poured from the bottle a great straw/golden color with a nice white head and had medium carbonation. Aroma is very grainy. This beer has a bit of a grassy flavor to it, acid bite at the end of the tasting and after some time between sips a bit of a fruity flavor starts to come out. The beer is definitely drinkable but nothing is outstanding about it to make it a regular pick up in my mind.

Lightly hazed straw color. Taller, fluffy white head. Dry grain, mild grass and a light acidic floral scents. Mild malt and light lemongrass flavor. Quenching, in a mildly odd way. LIght dough also. A decent lawnmowing brew.

I always try to keep an open mind when drinking plain old lagers. This however was very enjoyable. Pours a very bright golden colour, the head was suprisingly large. Aroma is a little grainy, but taste is flavorful- nice pear, touch of lime and a little beat of peach too! Otherwise crisp, clean and refreshing riverhorse brew. :)

Bottle - poured into an English Pint glass. It poured a dark amber with virtually no head. Just a lacy white head that lasts for seconds. Its palate is pour with very little body. The aroma and smell are pretty much the same with some maltyness and a little hops. There is a slight carbonation that tingles the tongue. An OK lager but not awesome.

I’d have to argue with the overall rating. It’s not going to crack the world in half, but this is seriously one of the better Pale Lagers, no doubt. The aroma is full, with malt, and some sweet fruit aroma. It’s rather standard in appearance, with a golden color, and minor head. It’s flavor is stuffed with malty goodness. It’s effervescent, its smooth, it a nice change from boring Pale Lagers.

A mediocre irish lager that has more body than your typical lager. There is definetely a hint of the Irish flavor. It not as bad as the ratings say. Drink as cold as possible! Goes well with oysters on the half shell.

bottle from afireinside96 (thanks Waylo).aroma of bananas, bread and funk. very gold color with a very thin white head and some carbonation. Very watery taste but it is a pale lager. Kind of has a metallic taste that I don’t care for. Goes down okay, would be better if it didn’t taste like it came from a can.

A trade with Afire - Pale yellow caramel pour. Fizzy with hardly any head. No flavor and lacks really a taste. Hardly any carbonation. Really not thrilled with this at all, bordering on terrible. I’m passing it back!
