Mild in body, easy-going, and clean in taste. Each sip charms the senses with a distinct flavor and refreshing simplicity. Named after our founder's grandmother, our unfiltered lager is forever dear to our hearts.

Light bodied, malty, bitter, a bit carbonated. I'd like it more without the carbonation.

12 oz can for $2. Pours clear pale with a nice foamy head. Clean fresh lager nose. A little heavy on the lager character on the uptake. Some bitterness develops in the middle. A little more personality than I care for in something which is labeled a lager, but hey, it is a californica common after all. Yes, could use a few manners and a little more carbonation. A slight processed feel sets in on the finish. In the end I'm getting the same feeling I get with cheaper slightly off tasting macro lagers.

From Beer Drop, canned July 5th 2023.
It pours a lightly hazed straw yellow with over a finger of foam, lacing is okay.
The smell is hoppy, grainy, a bit grassy, with sweet malt and some corn.
The taste is hoppy, as in grassy but kind of Pilsner like. Notes of grain follow with minimal corn presence. The more I drink, the more I like.
Good lightish mouthfeel, very easy drinking. I got to enjoy this one twice.
