Smells of corn starch, alcohol, and some grains. Has an average yellow appearance. Tastes of sour grains with some hops on the back end. To be honest, it doesn’t seem very "special" to me!

12 oz bottle bought at drinks over dearborn in chicago. Pours a clear light golden with a small white froth. Aroma is very sweet grains, sugary with some apple cider tartness. Flavor starts with a sweet candy and malt graininess and some light sharp frutiness. Finishes weakly but smooth with a fading malt breadiness.Light to medium body and a zippy carbonation. Nice palate and smooth flavors, just overall a bit bland

Bottled. Pale yellow colour, big creamy head. Vegetably malty aroma with hints of grass. Quite watery, but weak malt and hops. Not that exciting.
