Anyone who likes beer will like Session, it’s a beer that truly crosses boundaries, from blue collar to white, red state to blue, cocktail bar to barbecue. An extremely tasty American craft lager with plenty of flavor that goes down clean and smooth with a refreshing, crisp finish. American and European hops offer a wonderful noble hop aroma, and the two-row barley malt and pilsner malt along with our propriety yeast strain results in a bright, fresh taste profile that is extremely crisp, clean, and crushable.
Over the years, the Session brand has earned top honors at national and international competitions bringing home more than 125 medals including 70 golds. Session has truly earned itself a place at the bar, not to mention the barbecue.

Pretty much your standard lager, moderate malt and cereal grain sweetness offset by apple esters and a teensy-weensy noble hop flourish on the end. About as middle-of-the-road as craft can get, which apparently is this beer’s purpose. Better than macro swill, and I’ll admit it’s a nice, refreshing bottle after working in the flower beds all afternoon, but not something I’d seek out again.

Bottle from City Beer. Light hop, grass, hay, grainy nose. Pale gold with a low, bubbly head. Sweet, somewhat grainy, a bit corny, light hopping. Faint Bitterness. Very boring, actually. And thin.

Bottle. A clear, pale golden beer with a small, white head. The aroma is lightly grainy and mostly fruity, with pear drops, hay, grass and pine cones. It’s medium bodied and pleasantly carbonated, dry. Grass, pine cones, some hay and grains in the flavor, as well as a decent bitterness. Lasting mostly fruity finish with a suitable, drying bitterness. A decent beer indeed, but a rather boring style. Slakes the thirst. 150608

35 cl weird bottle at a restaurant in NY. Clear gold color, short white head. Aroma straightforward lager, grainly with blonde malts, faint hops. Taste is flatish. Light body, average carbonation, fluffy texture, fairly dry finish. A solid lager, nothing more.

This was poured into a pint glass.
The appearance was a decent looking hazy golden color with a slim white film of a head. There wasn’t any lacing.
The smell I guess had some grainy sweet cereal malts if that.
The taste was mainly semi - sweet.
On the palate, this sat very light on the body with a pretty good sessionability about it. The carbonation finishes fairly smooth with a light harshness.
Overall, actually not a bad premium lager. Decent price and probably would be a fairly decent pizza beer.
