Tap at Prague Beer Fest 2024. Golden body, white head. Saffron dominates the otherwise floral and lightly hoppy aroma. Soft, lean taste, saffron dominating again, light floral and light herbal notes with a light bitterness in the end. Really an American lager with saffron helping it along, but a really well made American lager with saffron. It was fun to see people getting tilted by it, even misidentifying it as an off note, not having expected it, hah. Good one!

On draft at Dominion Wine and Beer. Pours a clear pale gold with a white head. Aromas of rice cakes. Flavors are light and easy drinking.

Have had a bunch of 12 oz cans and drafts from its canning in early March '23 until now. Used a can consumed 4/17/23 for the rating, but I've been crushing this one for like 6 weeks now. Clear gold with a nice white head. The aroma is grass, spice, and grains, and they really do give off those Iberian notes. It's super bright and refreshing. Highly drinkable. Excellent stuff. It's one of my favorite AE beers, and that is saying quite a bit. Can't wait to pair it with some Lita food once they open at the end of this (April '23) month, as that place sounds straight up amazing.
