22 ounce bottle, no dating.

Pours a clear straw gold, great head of foam even with a slow pour. Damn good with the lacing.

Smells grainy, sweet malty, hints of grassy hops.

Taste has caramel malt, light grain, fairly assertive grass and lemon citrus. The hops are almost noble like what you get in a Pils.

Good body, light carbonation.

Dang, this is a tasty Lager. I'm glad I bought 2 bottles. ~$10 for the 2. Not cheap but quite satisfying.

Sample at the Winking Lizard Epic Tap Takeover on 03/14/2015. Pours a clear gold color with a thin white head that evaporates steadily to an outer ring. Short strings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of grassy hops and malt. Light-bodied with flavors of herbal hops, biscuit malt and a little fruit. The finish is mildly bitter with a hoppy aftertaste. Decent overall.

Bomber - according to the label, this is supposed to be a German Pils - clear gold - fairly effervescent, with a fairly thick lace - nose is lightly honey sweet malt, moderate mineral, grass, light bitterness - body is fairly soft and creamy - flavor up front is medium bitter, lightly tart/lemony - somewhat crackery, with moderate minerality near the finish - finish is dry and fairly bitter - initially, I detected a faint creamed corn/dms note, but after some time with it, this seems to have disappeared - nothing terribly exciting, and it lacks a certain pop and crispness I like in my lagers, but it’s an okay brew.

Bottle @ home, picked up at Wilbur’s Fort Collins for $3.99. Named Epic Blueski Lager. Pours a clear yellow appearance with an off white head. Somewhat sweet, lightly toasted malty, a bit grassy, pretty light aroma. Somewhat tangy, cracker, light toast, somewhat bitter herbal hoppy flavor that finishes a touch chalky. Not bad but certainly not as good as I was hoping. Still it’s clean and easily sessionable like most other Epic releases.
