On tap at the brewery. Hazy orange with modest foam, strong hop aroma with a bit of a malt hit. Flavour is big oily malt with a kind of cloying sour finish. Rather overdone and not very lager-y, trying too hard is the best way to describe it.

Draught at the brewery
Blond color, hazy. Smells like a common Lager. It has no flavor of crispy or bready malts, just simple pale malts, it’s a bit sweet, a bit herbaceous, no German hops.
This is not a Helles, it’s just a plain Lager that is more or less on the same level as mass produced ones, clean but without interest.

Tap at the brewery. Golden but no head. has a touch of appley stuff along a mild pale malt nose. Sweet and sticky palate is quite heavy, getting a touch phenolic, too. Underattenuated.

On tap at Trading Post, pours a clear pale yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out light grassy notes, a light herbal quality and biscuity notes. Flavour is along the same lines, with herbal, grassy notes, dry biscuity notes and a slight vegetal quality. Brewed to style well, with that prominent herbal quality that is present in so many helles lagers. Solid stuff, just pretty boring.

Draft - Nice grains. Clear gold with a decent white head. Grains and a touch of bitterness. OK.
