A rice lager in the Japanese style with pils malt and rice plus a beautiful blend of some of our favorite European hops, Czech Saaz and German Saphir. Dry and crisp with a slightly spicy character, followed by floral and sweet citrus. Super crushable for some warm weather hangs or any type of weather if you ask our brewers.

Pint can, canned 03/31/2025 partagée avec Tderoeck, merci.
Dorée, léger voile pâle, col épais crémeux blanc.
Arôme sur un bouquuet floral et finement malté. L'apport du riz reste plaisant. Le tout couvert avec de fins effluves fruité légers d'agrumes - dont pas mal de mandarine venant du Saphir.
Palais sur un caractère est malté avec une base de riz qui reste en support - assez plaisante. Amertume houblonné sur le flroal avec un très bon usage du Saaz - petite note d'agrumes et de mandarine/citronnelle pour ce qui est de l'usage du houblon Saphir.

Sample at Bob's Bar during the "23rd Annual Extravaganza!!!" on 02/22/2025. Clear straw color with a medium thin white head that evaporates quickly to a film. Short strings of lace. Aroma of floral hops, fruit and malt. Light-bodied with a floral hoppy character and notes of fruit and grainy malt and rice. The finish is clean with a fruity aftertaste. Above average overall.

Draft at Other Half DC. Poured a clear yellow color, a bit muted yellow hue, small white head. Aroma was really subtle grain - lots of rice in this lager, duh. Really smooth, very easy to drink. Light sweetness, not overly crisp, but it's quite nice. Really enjoyable.
