Pours clear, bright yellow into a willi. Bright white head with good retention recedes to coat surface. Citrus and cracker aromas. Sharp with sweet citrus, meadow and earthy multigrain front to back. Medium length bark finish.

Can to becher glass.
Appearance is as shown in the picture.
Aroma: soft semi-rustic sweet floral to rye and sweet wheaty tones with a touch of skunky sort of Euro-ish accents which actually smooth out as the beer continues to warm
Flavor: melds the prior noted aromas to a fine variety of sweet qualities and allows a nice rye sweet to floral and rustic finish with an edge of dryness
Texture: light to medium bodied; sessionable; good smoothness with a very nice carb level
Overall: I'd say this is a worthy of pale lager to return to.
