Bottle 65 cl. Courtesy of TheCheeseMan. Pours a hazy golden with a white head. Malt in the nose but also some perfumy hops. Medium body, sweet malts and an extremely harsh, raw and unrefined bitterness. Rather crude really. 220909

Bottled. Orangeish golden colour, small slightly off-white head. Aroma is hops, grains, some mild spicy and herbal notes. Flavour is quite strong fruity and grassy hops along with some mild grainy and earthy notes. Semi-dry palate.

Draft. Small, frothy, white head that diminishes fairly quickly. Pale amber body. Hops dominate the flavor of this lager, yet the aroma is very light.. Hints of toasted grain and herbs. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly to moderately bitter. The finish is lightly sweet and moderately to heavily bitter. The lingering bitterness does not totally cover up some malty huskiness, but the texture is mostly lager-like — medium body, watery texture and lively carbonation. Very nice bitterness, but not much else for everything that’s in this beer.

22oz bottle-pours an off white head and gold color. Aroma is mild west coast I.P. lager (Amarillo and Simcoe), secondary medium malt-caramel. Taste is balanced hops and malt with initial spice/lemon/resin, then a solid light/medium malt backbone follows. Thanks jwc215 for sharing this.
