12 ounce can into lager glass, canned on 5/20/2016. Pours crystal clear amber/orange color with a 1 finger fairly dense and fluffy off white head with good retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings down the glass, with a moderate amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Aromas of cracker, toasted biscuit, light nuttiness, herbal, floral, grass, light pepper, and yeast/toasted earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of bready malt and light-moderate earthy hop notes; with good strength. Taste of big cracker, toasted biscuit, light nuttiness, herbal, floral, light pepper, and yeast/toasted earthiness. Light-moderate herbal/spicy bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of cracker, toasted biscuit, light nuttiness, light pepper, and herbal/toasted earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Fantastic complexity, robustness, and balance of bready malt and light-moderate earthy hop flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Light-moderate dryness from bitterness, lightly increasing through the glass. Very clean on lager flavors with zero yeast notes present. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, fairly creamy/grainy, and lightly crisp/sticky balanced mouthfeel that is awesome. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 5%. Overall this is an outstanding Vienna lager! All around awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of bready malt and light-moderate earthy hop flavors; very smooth, crisp, clean, and easy to drink. A highly enjoyable offering.
