Tap at the Hay Merchant, Houston, 21/05/13. Very lightly hazed golden amber with a big white head, good lacing ensues. Nose is grass, pale malt, light citrus. Taste comprises pale malt, bread dough, touch of bitter orange, grass, citrus, a little hop bite. Medium bodied with fine carbonation, crisp dry finish. Decent enough lager.

Can - Sweet malt aroma thin disappearing head. Fizzy clear gold. Surprising front end bitterness, with a bit of hay and bread. Flavorful for a lager.

Can (courtesy of BarZigKin). Slightly sour barley malt aroma. Golden yellow color with large white head. Sweet creamy barley malt and moderately bitter grass/quinine hops flavor. Nice.

On tap at Flying Saucer. Pours a clear copper with a small frothy off white head leaving sticky lacing along the glass. The aroma is a faint caramel malt. Thin mouthfeel with a bitter malt and light crisp finish. A decent vienna from Karbach.

On tap at Flying Saucer Houston. Pours a clear light orange with a white head that lasts throughout the beer. Aroma has a decent amount of bead and grain with a slight grass hop note. Flavor has some sweet malts with notes of grass and hay.
