Catching up with Beer Hawk Advent Calendar having slowed down due to a chest infection. Aroma is malty with floral notes. Hazy-opaque amber. Thin foamy translucent white head provides 75% coverage. OK - so some rates refer to this being lagery and others to the fact that it's very unlager like. I go with the latter. Big a flirally. Citrus. Malts. A tad too much IMO. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Average-fizzy carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. If anything the lager thus started off as was more in the Vienna style I reckon but it's the flowers that are the key focus of the final beer. OTT.

Bottle from the Beer Hawk Advent Calendar. Pours clear golden amber with a thin white head. Aromas are floral, soap and orange. Taste is more of the same. Not really getting any lager vibes.
