Pours a bright, light gold. Mildly sweet-malty flavor with a smooth clean finish reminiscent of cereal grain. More balanced and less pronounced bitterness than a pilsner from the German Noble hop additions throughout the boil giving a grassier aroma and less bitter taste. Yeast out of Berlin was used to impart a less crisp finish but accentuate more fruity esters into the beer.

Draught, 4/13/25.
Clear, pale peach-brass. Small, white head.
Smells very buttery with a bit of mineral or even a touch of metallic character behind it.
Big butter, though not rendering the beer undrinkable. Rather, rendering the beer in to an English golden ale of sorts, I guess. The texture is still malty, the beer dry and as snappy as can be for having a lot of diacetyl in it.
