tap at Boyne in Michigan. Simple light beer - nice for as easy drinker, nothing showy

Can from Busch's. Pours a clear straw gold with a finger of white foam that lingers. Sweet aromas, almost estery like a saison or Belgian pale ale. Banana and faint grain notes. Lingering sweetness on the palate. Clean and crisp with a banana cream pie thing at the end. I don't think this is very lager-like but it tastes good.

Seven Bridges, Brooklyn: pale gold with small head. Aroma is apple juice and light hops. Taste is sweet and bad apple juice. Mediocre.

12 oz. can. Pours a clear pale yellow-gold color with a white head and good retention. Fair lacing. Grainy, lemony aroma. Grainy, lemony flavor too with light sweetness. Crisp, clean and refreshing. A little watery mouthfeel. Light body. Straightforward and flavorful for only 4.0% ABV. Well done and repeatable.

Crisp and slightly hazy golden coloured body with a thinnish, single centimetre tall pure white head. Aroma of grass, metal, light malt, cardboard, a bit of funky sugars and a dose of fruits - mainly oranges. Light-bodied; Definite fruity and grassy qualities at first with some white grapes, oranges, lemons and a touch of grass noticeable, while showing some subdued malt elements, cardboard and finishing with a nice yeastie note with bread, grass and even some honey noticeable. Aftertaste is light and dry with some mellow sweetness, a touch of grain and a kick of yeast noticeable as well. Overall, a decent and refreshing beer that shows the start of the summer pretty well, plus a good light option from a real brewery in Michigan! I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Merchant’s in Dearborn, Michigan on 24-July-2015 for US$1,79 sampled at home in Washington on Memorial Day 2017 on 29-May-2017.

High hopes for this can, I’ve just run thru a few different short IPAs. Aroma is mild vanilla and metal. Looks like a pleasant hay colored slightly hazy lager. Good co2 initially. Yes, lighter flavor, probably should be listed as a pale lager. Does have a little more yeast flavor than most pale lagers. I almost think it may be some kind of belgian yeast. Goes down fairly easy in the end, overall medium experience refreshment.
