Can, pour is clear, slightly darker pale, nearing the yellow light brown orange spectrum. Smell is that of a fresh cream corn nose lager with a slightly malty olfactory. First taste is a little surprisingly bitter up front. Then you get some of that malty feel in the middle. Continues with good carbonation, I like that; helps me overcome that bitter thing in there. Towards the end I'm starting to get a little bit more of phenolic astringent-ness. Yea, it finishes on the top of the back of the tongue with a medium length almost unpleasant continuing un-hoppy bitter bite. Started off good but could finish better.
