Ever so slightly hazy golden and peach coloured body with a nice, two centimetre tall perfectly white coloured head with some large bubbles that dies down pretty quickly. Aroma of crisp grain, biscuits, light honey, flowers, a dash of earth and some small doses of hops. Light to Medium-bodied; Strong grassy and very biscuity malt notes show through everything with a dry bite and some herbal flavours and a light sweetness, with a fresh and easy-drinking wheat bite towards the end. Aftertaste is very clean, crisp, slightly earthy, but very malty with a hint of the lager yeast notes and a dash of grass, all without any real sweetness here and with only a faint bit of other characteristics, with the apple/pear leading the way, there are some subtle nutty and herbal aspects, but that's it - this is really about the malt and lager yeasts with a crisp bite. Overall, a decent/nice Lager with a slight bit of a kick of a Marzen/Oktoberfest feel, but it's definitely less nutty and herbal than those and much less sweet, but both are clearly lagers and this is made with a nice bite and a good profile. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from the Sperryville Corner Store in Sperryville, Virginia on 06-March-2021, my wife's birthday for US$2,49 sampled a few hours before going back out to Sperryville for Shenendoah National Park on 14-May-2021 with my wife and kids.
