On tap. Pours a dark brown with light head. Aromas of bready malts and a bit of caramel. Flavors of same - mostly malts; caramel is dry.
It's an odd brown that should he a stout but it's a lager without the flavor.
Light, crisp, good palate cleanser. Ramen here are delicious.

Clear golden pour, some foam but not too much of it. Bready malty nose, quite mil bitterness, light grass. Tastes light brainy, crisp and super drinkable. Light bitter linger there, quite smooth, still crisp bready feel there. Pretty decent as long as lagers go.
