Aroma: Pear, melon, metal and grain.
Appearance:Clear golden body with a small off-white head that lasts no more than 20 seconds. Flat carbonation. No lacing.
Taste: Metallic tasting beer with faint pear notes. Not much going on here. Slightly bitter finish, but the overall taste is diluted and underwhelming.
Palate: Thin body with a watery mouthfeel. Flat carbonation.
Overall: A bland and uninspiring beer. It doesn’t look, smell or taste very appealing.
