5oz sampler at Pig Minds. Pours a lightly hazy gold. Lightly sweet aroma. Grains and corn with a hint of caramel malt. Taste is lightly sweet. Mostly caramel and grains. Light bodied with texture I can only describe as average. Lively carbonation and a long finish. Overall, not bad. Nothing to write home about but I could absolutely session the shit out of this beer.
