Ever so slightly golden and peach coloured body with a thick, dense, three centimetre tall pure white head. Aroma of fresh light malts with a big dose of a lager yeast with some assertive astringency and bitterness along with a touch of citrus and light floral notes near the end. Light-bodied; Assertive, dry and very floral notes with a perfumey kick and a big touch of the lager yeasts near the end with a dry and floral like quality. Aftertaste shows a lot of herbal flavours with a big dry kick from the malts and lager yeast and ending with an almost pure perfumey hop quality and very dry grassy yeast flavour that is mild but still showing some good flavours. Overall, a good enough beer with a smooth finish, but complex flavour profile that shows very nicely as a lager with a smooth yeast and herbal finish. Great to sample and perfect for the season and enjoyable as a lager, for sure. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Giant Food in Arlington (Columbia Pike), Virginia on 22-November-2017 for US$16,99/twelve pack, sampled at home in Washington on 25-April-2018.

12 ounce bottle thanks to hershiser2! Clear golden, large frothy white head, good retention. Aroma of doughy pale malt, crisp hops... herbal, lemony grassy, snappy. The taste is spicy, grassy, herbal hops, pale malt. Thin-medium bodied, strong lingering bitterness. Amazing aroma, and the rest is solid.
