Brewed for our friends @blackhearttattoo and their 15th anniversary, this pale lager comes in at 5.4%, is full bodied, and dare we say, crushable.

473ml can. Smooth, malty and grainy with some hints of sweetness, hay, farmyardy cellar notes, grass and citrus. Okay, quite balanced.

Poured from a 16 oz can dated October 9, 2019. Aroma is malt forward with grain notes, bracket and bread. Faint floral esters and hop notes with a light herbal hop character. Pours a brilliantly clear, yellow gold with a medium sized, thick, creamy white head that recedes steadily to a small film that lingers. Light lacing and no legs. Flavor is somewhat sweet with fairly strong malt flavors. Medium low to low bitterness. Lots of cracker, grain and bread. Light amount of dryness in the finish. Faint floral and herbal hop notes. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a really nice, super crushable lager. It's kind of fun to see craft breweries making these types of beers, but it would be great if the price point came down a bit.
