Grüngeist Lager

Poured from a 16 oz can dated February 3, 2020. Aroma is fairly malt forward with some cracker malt, bread and grain notes. Some corn and diacetyl notes with moderate floral esters. Light grassy, floral hop notes. No alcohol spice. Pours a slightly hazy, pale yellow-gold with a medium large, medium thick, frothy white head that recedes quickly to a small film. Medium light lacing and no legs. Flavor is fairly dry with a slight sweetness and light grain, cracker malt and bread notes. Medium light bitterness and no alcohol spice. Moderate diacetyl notes with light corn and some floral esters. Light floral hop notes. Mouthfeel is light bodied and fairly crisp with moderate carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, this isn't a great lager. The hop notes are fine, but the fermentation wasn't clean. Floral esters and quite a bit of diacetyl.
