5 month old bottle (past best by) > pilsner glass A: Slightly hazy yellow pour with little head or retention but active carbonation. S: Light scent of tropical fruits including a sweet candy or bubble gum note as others have stated. T: Surprisingly tart, bitter and dry to start. A little tropical fruit or peach sweetness and some wood round out the sip. M: Light, crisp and tingly with slight stickiness. O: Didn't look or smell particularly good but tastes much better than expected even at this age.

Clear pale yellow color with a fizzy white head and decent retention. Decent lacing. High carbonation. Hoppy nose. Sweet grainy lager flavor that quickly turns to a floral hops finish. Clean, semi crisp mouthfeel. Quick finish.

Darn tasty lager from Victory, funneling multitudes of various hop goodies into one approachable, easygoing brew. Lemon, grapefruit, orange, pepper, dank, mint, grass and a underlying earthiness all weave in and out of a gentle, toasty lager base. Grassiness grows stronger as it warms, as does slight estery notes that pair well with the ebullient hopping. Pours a slightly hazed straw yellow with a modest white head and minor lacing. Nose is an explosion of hop notes, citrus and dank and pine underlined by lager yeast. Sparkly feel is good for repeated pint disposal. Not a fan of the term "crushable", but it fits here. Go-to beer indeed.

Draught @ Waterfront Ale House. Clear yellow with large foamy off-white head, very faint bread aroma, medium carbonation, lightly bitter malty taste, smooth body, abrupt finish. Not bad for a lager.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a cloudy yellow gold color with a medium sized foamy white head that lingered and left decent lacing. The Aroma was bitter dryish with Windex and citrus. The flavor was bitter and tangy with citrus, solvent, perfume and dry cracker. Long finish. Medium body. Meh.

Draught @ Roasthouse, Frederick, MD. Pours nearly clear pale straw with small white head. Clear aroma of malt, with notes of yeast and hoppy touches. Bitter and citric flacour of hops, with rough, estwry nites and touches of malt. Mildly acidic and estery aftertaste. OK for an India Style Lager,
