draft. Not a whole lot of flavor, your typical pale yellow lager. Pretty clean and refreshing though. Not too bad if served cold on a hot day.

On tap at Denniston Dog, Westport. Clear golden with small white head. Malty, bit grainy, watery, some bitterness in finish. Not the worst macro lager out there.

Enjoyable - clear golden pour; quite crisp, mainly malt and grain, but in a good way
