Pours a crystal clear amber color with a small off-white head and fair retention. Spotty lacing. Caramel malt aroma. The flavor is a good blend of German and American Oktoberfest beers. Good bready malts up front and a sweet caramel malt finish. Smooth and satisfying. Medium body. Medium-light carbonation. Low bitterness.

Tap at Lakefront. Pretty nice light lager. Toasty bread note, mild noble hop balance. Very easy drinking, but not thin or watery. Good.

Perhaps my first pumpkin beer of the season. Tap at Lakefront. Really attractive pour, deep amber-orange body, steady off-white head. Big pumpkin pie spice aroma. Nitro pour really accentuates a creamy pumpkin pie tone. Well done.

Tap at Lakefront. Hazy unfiltered orange body. Steady white head. Pretty decent Belgian IPA, classic eatery notes coupled juicy new school hop varietals. Not a style I really crave, but this is pretty solid.

Tap at Lakefront. A little stronger than typical for the style. Hops don't quite add the balance that helps make the style work. Big and bold,.with some fruity edges, this drinks sort of like a Strong Pale Lager or IPL. Could be a pinch drier, more bitter. OK.

12oz can. Not much of an aroma, distant at best. The strawberry barely registers, the lemon is more of a plastic candy flavor than a biting tartness. Drinkable I suppose, not overly sweet, but lacks much flavor or depth.

12oz can. Agave/Tequila beers were sort a trend in the 90s before I was old enough to drink, always knew they would resurface. Smooth, sweet Blonde Ale. Agave gives it interesting depth, otherwise sort of Mexican Lager feel. Simple and easy drinking. OK.

Can. Pours hazy dark yellow/orange with a foamy beige head, orange peel aroma, adequate carbonation, medium bitter orange peel-grape taste, thin body, long bitter finish. Flavorful, but on the bitter side.
