I really wasn’t into this stuff. I guess it’s good, but I think you really have to want to like it. I’m not much for lagers in general, although I do like a good pilsener. This didn’t really do it for me.

Great head and lace. The beer is naturally hazy. I detect a little bit of dyacetyl in the nose and on the palate. The butterscotch becomes much more noticeable as the beer warms. I guess having a summer brew a few days into fall is probably not a good idea, but the bottle does not have an age statement. Who knows when it was packaged.

A good summer brew. Light, but still has character.

Nice lemon flavor but a little watery. Had some aftertaste but overall a decent beer.
