Aroma has notes of garlic, weed, silicon. Taste is moderately too highly bitter with just a little malt sweetness balancing it out. Normally I wouldn’t care for any beer with too much oniony or garlicy hop character, but it works here for some reason. Very tasty, crisp, clean, and refreshing.

16oz can from Tavour. Clear golden pour, white foamy head. Biscuity aroma, bready. Taste is grainy, sweet, bread crust, biscuit malts, crackers. Not the Vienna Lager I was expecting.

On tap at Elizabeth Station, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma is dry, with bready malt and some toasted nuts. Flavour is dry and bitter, closer to a pils, with dry bready malt, straw, and gentle hoppy bitterness. Finishes nearly bone dry, with a crisp, bready finish. Very good.

Norm's in a can: pours amber with an off white head. Aroma is caramel, earthy, light hoppy notes. Taste is lightly bitter, not too sweet. Well-balanced. Solid stuff.

Can from Norms: Pours super pale with white head. Aroma is spicy and herbal hops, a little grass along with that. Taste is low bitterness, fairly dry. Nice aftertaste.

16 oz can from the Untappd Wild Year in Beer box. Aroma has notes of toasted marshmallow, bread. Pours nearly black with a one finger beige head with decent retention. Taste is lightly sweet and roasty with some light herbal hop bitterness around the edges. Excellent. Probably the best example of this style I’ve had.
