Six-pack in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Pours a dense dark amber with a slight but lasting tan head. Malty aroma. Medium body, solid hop bitterness paired with dry malty flavor. Caramel notes with bready character, late hop flavor, well-carbonated. Clean finish. somewhat non-complex.

Can. Pours a clear reddish amber with a white ring and minimal carbonation. Nose is mainly caramel malts with a hint of hops. Taste is the same. Light-to-medium mouth feel. Comes off more like a Scotch Ale. Meh.

Light amber with a thin white head. Light aroma of caramel and roasted malt. Taste of sweet malt, light fruit and mild caramel. Not much too this one.

Unusual traits for a lager,amber like color,a hint of fruit with the malt ,in the taste, more like a creme ale then a lager, no faults ,just nothing distinctive
