Pours a three finger white head that fades slowly to a thin layer leaving a little lace. Crystal clear pale amber color. Grassy nose. Light-medium carbonation and light-medium bodied. Flavor is sweet hay, hops must be balancing as this is rather inoffensive. As usual special doesn’t mean anything. $1.83 for a 11.5oz bottle from Manchester Wine and Liquors Manchester, CT.
