S6L3F2T4O9 From growler and poured into a big clear 24 oz heavy glass mug. I filled the growler yesterday at the EE brewery. Cloudy for a lager, makes this very interesting, optically. Comes across as nearly flat on the palate. Taste has plenty of personality for a lager. If I didn’t know better, I’d say this was ale. It is really ale-ish. A lager an ale lover will love. Most macro lagers are designed to keep outttah yer face, this is not. It regularly lets you know that it is in your mouth. More persona than most lager lovers will tolerate. Interestingly, I think I detect some higher alky macro-brew attributes, which could be good or bad, depending on your attitudes toward macro lagers. Smooth, yes but not totally qualifying as a session-able brew, heheheh, I’m a little off my sharpness by now. In summary, moderately diverse when compared to any other ‘lager’ I‘ve tasted. An ale like lager with plenty of that EE attitude in there. Overall, pretty strong.
