Can. Mostly clear golden. Lime, starch. Taste is maaaaybe salt, but rather bland and dull. I am confused.

Poured up on tap at Tipsy Cactus where it exhibits a crystal clear pure gold colored body that supports a full tight white head that leaves behind some sheet lacing. The aroma offers up soft pils malts, a dash of fruity esters and then a growing spicy hoppiness. The taste delivers full spicy hop flavor and spicy hop bitterness riding above a mellow lager yeastiness. At midway brief sweet fruity esters are noticed before the spicy hops rear up and flatten them out. Another sip reveals a sense of mineral notes adding a bit more depth and teeth to the experience. Solid pils.

8 Fl Oz pour in the Best Brews Taproom (Lake Havasu City). Drank along side a Tombstone Dry Irish Stout, which was OK, but this knocked socks off it, lovely rich feel to this heavy hitter, really enjoyed it.
