I used to see Oskar Blues locally all the time years gone by. This the first new one in a long time. My Cowtown snifter arrayed, I tilt the can. Indistinct yellow-gold in color and a proper, thoroughly white head following. Pleasant scent, pineapple mostly, tropical and maybe some citrus. The drink is nice. Guava, pineapple, a touch of hoppiness, malt and meadow. Pleased to get this tasting.

(Can) Brownish black colour with brief head. Malty, roaated nose with dark chocolate, coffee, oak wood, bourbon, caramel and cherries. Malty, roasted, slightly fruity taste with notes of dark chocolate, cacao, coffee, cherries, oak wood, bourbon, vanilla, biscuits and a balanced cacao bitterness in a finish with a slight cherry acidity. Full body, quite sweet. Rich and tasty, but a bit allover the place with a slight acidity lurking in the background. Still, very nice.

This one dollar can from the singles rack at JR's pours clear pale with a big lasting foamy white head. Nose is strong green grapefruit. From a macro pale lager drinkers point of view, the taste of this is so blasted bitter. Its a rototiller across my tongue ruining my taste buds for an hour or two. The flavor is unpleasant disagreeable disgusting distasteful awful dreadful horrible terrible vile and unnecessarily foul. So yes, it is right on style and if you like IPA, you need to try this, if you did not already. Leaves such a bad medicinal taste in my mouth. Will somebody please get me an ice cold clean fresh non offensive american pale lager for a chaser? A sammy adams american light will do just fine, thank you.

Surprised to find this cheap can for a buck at moon pop n beer. Pours crystal clear very light pale with a foamy white head. Yes, looks just like any other american macro light pale lager. Nose is simple clean pale lager with a tad of metallic odor. First taste tells me this is a little more than a light pale lager, its got a little pilsner sharp bite in there. Has a taste similar to many premium pale lagers I've had. Yes, quite light and somewhat watery on the palate and it does have some pils attributes that linger after each slug. Co2 level is quite nice, somewhat refreshing in that aspect. In the middle I'm still thinking this is more than a macro style pale lager. I bet many macro lager lovers will say there is a bit more bitterness in there than they care for. After tasting many domestic pilsner, good and bad, I'd say this falls into the average category of that style. JMHO. Just curious what kind of hops are actually used for the 'mild floral hops' hehehh, wondering if they truly were noble. That pointed pils sharp, almost astringent, domestic pilsner bitter bite really sets in on the finish.
