12 ounce can into lager glass, canned on 5/22/2017. Pours slightly hazy/cloudy pale golden straw color with a 1 finger fairly dense and fluffy white head with good retention, that reduces to a thin cap that lingers. Light spotty lacing clings down the glass, with a moderate amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Aromas of juicy cucumber, lemon, lime, cracker, white bread, light pepper/salt, and herbal/grassy earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with good balance of pale malt, fruit, and light earthy hop/pepper/salt notes; with solid strength. Taste of juicy cucumber, lemon, lime, cracker, white bread, light pepper/salt, and herbal/grassy earthiness. Light herbal/grassy bitterness and slight pepper spice on the finish. Lingering notes of cucumber, lemon, lime, cracker, white bread, light pepper/salt, and herbal/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Nice robustness and balance of pale malt, fruit, and light earthy hop/pepper/salt flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Fairly crisp/clean finishing. Perfectly clean on lager flavors, with zero yeast notes present. Lightly increasing dryness from bitterness. Medium carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth, fairly bready/grainy, and slightly sticky mouthfeel that is nice. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 4.8%. Slight touch of lingering pepper heat through the glass. Overall this is a good fruited pale lager. All around good robustness and balance of pale malt, fruit, and light earthy hop/pepper/salt flavors; very smooth, crisp, clean, and refreshing to drink. Very well balanced between fruit and pils malts; just enough hops to balance the malt profile. Not as much pepper presence as I hoped for; but otherwise a nicely enjoyable, standard tasting, and inoffensive lager.

Can. A- Cucumber, subtle lime. A- Gold color, clear liquid, white head. T- Cucumber, lime, grains. P- Light body, average texture, average carbonation, balanced finish. O- Fairly refreshing although all the ingredients taste artificial. No detectable heat although I was drinking this while eating some jerk chicken. Not bad. It's at least a thirst quencher.

Hazy to cloudy yellow pour, fine layer of foam.
Mango and stone fruit smell, mild tart suggestion.
Mango, apricot stone, slightly tart but I get more sweet notes.
Light bodied but not watery. I like this.

Can. Strong cucumber, light lime, biscuit malt, and straw aroma. Hazy yellow with large white head. Moderately sweet cucumber, lime, light biscuit malt, and mildly bitter straw flavor. Light body - the merest hint of heat in the finish. Cucumber soda.

Can picked up from Brewerβs Haven. Deep brown color with a thick creamy finger of tan head. Nice aroma, full of rich coffee and roast, a little sweetness. Very nice coffee smellsβ¦ leads into a coffee-centric taste with minimal sweetness and some more roast. All about the coffee, just a little lactose. Creamy feel and a little slick, maybe a tad on the thin side. Would be more than adequate as a breakfast beer.
