4-pack of pint cans from Leo's Wines & Spirits. Pours a tall and foamy head over a very light, straw colored body with more haze than yellow. Smell is hoppy, close to a Sierra Nevada, with big pine resin and a side of citrus; lemon or even some guava. So, yes, that hop nose is also right on the palate. Just kept from being overly bittered by some self-restraint, because there's not enough malt to hold this in check. Paler and lower in maltiness than even an Old Milwaukee, but a bit dry. After about half the can I do feel some substance to the beer. Probably actually lightly hopped to match the light malts. A slightly different experiment. Lager process does offer up a dry finish.
