Hindsight 2020

Perfectly clear golden coloured body with a super large tan and off-white head that's beautifully microfoamed and tops the beer at around eight centimetres tall before fading slowly. Aroma of grass, hay, light malts, some flowers, yeast and bread, but a subtle smell of tropical fruits - very nice! Light-bodied; Very grassy bite at first with a herbal and perfumey hop characteristic with some light bitterness and fruity candy flavours on the edges, with a strong effervescence and bite, but still an easy-drinking and soft finish, and quite smooth, especially on the yeast front - for being a lager. Aftertaste is nice, dry, herbal, grassy and showing a good deal of tropical fruit notes from the hops, but alas, no bitterness from those hops - some slight bitterness and pungency from the lager yeast, but relatively subdued, especially for the style - the strongest thing here is the dryness and grass. Overall, a pretty nice option for what seemed as a dead style - not bad, especially for the summertime! Great to try as an American beer, back in the lower 48, celebrating Independence Day here in our nation's capital! I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Gettysburg Beer Mart in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania on 12-May-2021 for US$4,49, canned on 28-January-2021, sampled at my house here in Washington on 04-July-2021 - July 4th after watching the fireworks with my family here in town.

16 ounce can. Hazy pale gold color. Large pillowy white head. Perfumy hop aroma hints at tropical fruit. Flavor is light, bready malt, sweet citrus, pineapple and melon. Bittersweet notes of grapefruit and lemon in middle. A hint of dank pine on the backend. Brief dry finish.

Pours a slightly hazy gold from a can. Fruity, malty aroma, lots of pine too. Similar flavor. Pretty good beer.
