We find this to be a perfect Lager for late winter and early spring. It has the structure to confront chilling March nights while posing a beautiful balance between the German malt and Hallertau Hersbrucker hops featured in the beer. We find notes of fresh bread and biscuits, herbal, floral and spicy. A very subtle caramel/toffee flavor comes through as well.

Reviewed from notes.
Can to mug.
Appearance: clear yellow color with a three finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: wet grains & biscuity tones then some floral to earthy hops with a super light spice
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a variety of different sweet qualities then underscore by a little bit of bitterness; finishes malty sweet with a little bit of spice
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable; good smoothness with nothing distracting - just a nice even flow
Overall: nice easy going Dortmunder I'd be willing to have again and possibly next time straight from the can and by the grill.

16 oz can. Aromas horny malt and a mild spice. Flavor is honey-like grain, mild spice with a weak floral note. Balanced lager.

Can says 5.7%. Pours clear deep gold into a stein. White soapy head with good retention recedes leaving gloppy spiders. Cracker, chemicals and multigrain aromas. Sharp with super-elastic bubble plastic and sourdough crust upfront turning to a bitter earth in the hot finish.
