Found this for 1$ on the clearance rack at JR's, thought I rated this one already. Happy about two things with this can; it aint an IPA and its a lager. Finally, something that may be enjoyable for a change. Not just a brutal cheap beer for a tick. Pour is slightly hazy on light pale, nice foamy white head that stays. Mild perfume fresh noble hops aroma. First taste is not bad, its fairly mild and quite belgian in nature! Yes, there is some mild pilsner bitterness in there but its well balanced and easy to take. Its not a pointed in yer face pilsner bite that is so common with many ruder domestic pilsners. Going down easy, the pilsner bitter bite starts to rise near the middle. Yes, near the end that bitterness rises to a point that I can't ignore. Not bad on the finish, glad I found this one.

Pours gold into a shaker. White head with good retention recedes to coat surface. Caramel and hat aromas. Crisp with sweet hay and straw front to back. Lasting earthy pith finish.

12 ounce can. Medium gold pour . Frothy white head leaves behind spotty lacing. Bready malt aroma has herbal hop notes. Flavor upfront is sweet malt and grassy hops. Notes of citrus and honey in middle. Dryish finish. Very nice.

Can drunk at my brother's place after a 100F day at the aquarium and Guitar Center. Light gold, very nice head. Slightly lemony nose, quite refreshing taste with very dry malt flavor and a smooth, near IPA level bitterness. Dangerously crushable.

Brewery draught, 12/12/24. Clear blonde-lemon. Small, creamy, white head. Lower retention. Rich sourdough maltiness, dried herbal hops and lingering biscuit, earth and crisp yeast. Clean. Soft, light, biscuity, with honey and mildly herbal hops. Low bitterness, lingering honey and mild hop. Bit of sweetness lingering, maybe more so than necessary. Bit mushy at points.
