Bottled poured a white medium head that lasts. Light clear amber color. Very carbonated at first it needed to settle. Taste is crisp, clean and balanced. Probably a better beer for summer than mid winter but quite nice as a change of pace.

12 ounce bottle pours a clear golden yellow color with aromas of burnt grain, caramel, butter and some grass. Flavors follow suit, a basic lager overall.

From bottle. Pours a crisp clear amber with medium head. Aroma clean and bready. Taste was a refreshing mild lager with a bite on the back end.

thedm (4773) - Fort Wayne, USA - DEC 27, 2012
This bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a very large sized head of foamy white colored bubbles that were mostly lasting and left behind a softly carbonated transparent weak yellow colored body and a thick foamy lacing. The mild aroma was malty and musty. The semi-flat thick mouth feel was weakly tingly at the start and at the finish hoppy aftertaste. The thick flavor contained notes of malt. Not one that I would drink again.

Narnad (1340) - Wonder Lake, Illinois, USA - DEC 18, 2012
Pours a clear yellow, tall bubbly white head (very large). Aroma is grainy with a hint of lemon and a faint noble hops nose. Flavor is very pronounced grainy character early, light lemon and some mild grassy hops note. Body is light with a sharp carbonation that adds to the tangy taste from the grain. Overall a pretty good brew. Fits style very well and the grain taste is shown off well.

thanks jsquire. Pours a soft pale straw yellow with a thin white head. Nose is bready and malt forward with a lightly toasted character and notes of cracker. Lots of wet bread in the flavor, some herbal hop notes. Not too crazy on this one.

12 ounce bottle from a locals trade with JSquire. Thanks! Pours a clear gold with a nice white head. Aroma of malt and bread. Taste is malt, bread, grain, and a bit of hops. Nice balance. Nicely done.

Good domestic German styled lager. Crisp finish, light body, this would be a great summer beer. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

12oz bottle into a princess slipper - pale gold with thin white head and equally thin lacing. Nose is being locked out of your apartment on Christmas eve - a hint of festivity but why is this happening to me. Flavor adds wet paper bag. drain pour.
