Draught from whole foods old town. Yellow pour, kind of an everyday lager here. Unremarkable.

Grabbed a pint at whole foods Columbus on way to ballet oddly, been wanting to try this beer for awhile since I’m a weirdo. Dusty orange yellow pour small sudsy head. Nose is crackers and lemon. Tastes of lemon, light herbs, grainy, water crackers, some peppery notes. Fine palate.
