Sampled from the tap at the brewery. Pours a clear gold with a slight orange hue and a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has an earthy grass with a hint of pine and hay notes backing. Flavor is more straw forward with growing grass and a touch of grapefruit rind underlying.

Crisp copper and bronze coloured body with a very thin, single centimetre tall pure white head. Aroma of crisp grain, light toffee, some earth, a dose of nuts and a tiny bit of grapes. Light to Medium-bodied; Assertive malted barley notes show at first with a relatively large earthy and rustic flavour that shows some nuts and toasted grain in addition to a very mellow grape-like sweetness at the end. Aftertaste shows some caramelised sugars, a dash of grain and flowers and ending with some more of the malt notes, which are quite strong. Overall, a relatively easy-drinking lager that does have a ton of flavour, especially the malty and earthy side of things, but some sweetness does shine through as does the yeast and bready flavours, especially at the end. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from the Department of Beer and Wine in Alexandria (Potomac Yard), Virginia on 05-June-2020 for US$2,87 sampled at my house on the Eastern Shore of Virginia, in Onancock, Virginia on 13-June-2020, one last time.
