No aroma. Clear yellow, thinnish white head. Grass. Medium body, a little fizzy. Honestly, not a lot going on here. Fairly ordinary pale lager.

Can from Tavour. Pours gold with a large foamy white head that laced a little. Aroma of melon and hay. Med body. Dry and nicely bitter. Flavor is green melon, hay/grass, citrus and some pine or resin. Lots of things and lots of flavor. Good stuff.

From Good Times Oakland, canned August 8th 2025.
It pours a clear straw gold with plenty of foam, long lasting foam, lacing is very good.
The smell is noble hops, bread, toasted malt, a bit spicy, not much sweetness.
The taste is noble hop bitterness, bread, toasted malt, light sweetness which is appropriate for this style of Oktoberfest.
Medium bodied with good carbonation, this surprised me with its goodness. Great collaboration here and I would certainly drink this again.

On tap at Ridgewood, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma has fresh grassy hops, doughy malt, and crisp crackery notes. Flavour is super bitter, bright grassy hops and a crisp biscuity malt. Bitter, grassy finish. Excellent.

Can from Tavour. Pours a sort of pinkish gold with a large frothy/foamy white head that rapidly diminished. Aroma does seem rather watermelon and prickly pear. Not quite med body. Kind of watery. More dry than sweet. Earthy/bitter in a light way. Not that it's bad, it's just outside the usual beer world I know.

On tap at Ridgewood. Pours clear pale blonde with a white head. Fresh, grassy nose with some spicy notes. Flavour has dry dank hops, resins, good bitterness, and cracker malts. Nice, the hops come through well.
