Bottle brown, 500 ml
Appearance: Pours shiny and perfectly clear, bright golden body. Head is nice, quite deep, frothy and medium in size slowly decreasing to a small, tiny froth. Bodu is not strongly carbonated, rather mild effervescence. Head is white in colour and when decreases, there is practically no lacing. head is mostly diminishing.
Aroma: Milky, chalky, some mild and gentle atomatic hoppy nose, crystalized honey sweetness, a hint of citrus like lemon and lime to a lesser extend. Not much, rather simple aroma of premium Lager, not that weak, but again...simple, nothing surprising.
Flavour: Frony is sweet, refreshing, aromatic, than you can feel some accidity and carbonation on palate, what comes after is aromatic grassy, gentle hoppy nose. Generally the beer is too accidic and giving the impression of saltyness. Some grainy sweetness on palate. Generally easy going and drinkable, nothing repulsive, some bitterness on palate at finish. Finish duration is short.
Palate: Body is light, texture is wattery with nice hints of accidic saltyness, carbonation is livlely on palate. Finish feel is rather chalky, but generally grainy with weak aromatic hoppy nose.

Can. Dull gold with a small head. Aromas are grain with some fruity pear. Flavours are sweet grain with some fruitiness. Some damp and soapy notes. Pretty poor.

Bottle from By The Bottle in Vancouver, WA--Poured a straw yellow-golden body with a small crafty white head. Crisp, creamy, malty and mild nose. Creamy, smooth sessionable taste and finish. Nothing spectacular, but quite good.
