Draft at the source. Hazy pale yellow color, fluffy white head. Aroma of a French whore’s perfume after she’s been rolling in the hay. Taste is funky, dusty barnyards.

Can thanks to CLoaker! Pours hazy butterscotch, medium off-white head, dissipates slowly, nice lacing. Aroma is citrus, grass, hay, dankness. Flavor is light sweet, light bitter, citrus, dank notes. Light body, creamy mouthfeel. Pretty darn tasty. Another of the line of India Pale Lagers that are taking over the lager leaderboard on RateBeer.

Can. It’s a clear golden colored beer with a dense, light beige colored head. Citrus peel, pinecones and a little malty touch on the nose. The flavor is equally straight forward and un-challenging, but still nice. Some malty flavors in the back, mostly pale malts, and lots of hops up front, with a nice bitterness level. Full body, pleasant carbonation. Lasting finish. This is the kind of pale ale I like. 149512

Received in trade. Reviewed from notes.
The appearance had a hazy golden yellow color with a decent transparency to it, enough to see a soft ever so small carbonation rising at a moderate pace, white foamy head rises just a bit and falls adequately like a normal American Pale Lager. The llacing is sporadic and kinda all over the place.
The smell had crisp grains, light corn, slightly spicy and has what seems to be some lemon zest (I think).
The taste was at first bitter but lends a slightly sweet side to try to come out. There isn’t any aftertaste and it has a dry crisp finish.
On the palate, it sits about a light on the body and is pretty sessionable. Carbonation is good for an American Pale Lager and for me as there’s a nice crisp texture rolling about my mouth and tongue.
Overall, hey, what a nice American Pale Lager and in cans. Holy cow, I only poured it out for a proper review, but honestly, next time if there ever is, well I wouldn’t mind having this fishing and right outa the can.

Sampled at the 2014 Untapped festival in Fort Worth. Pours a near clear deep amber with tan head that dissipates slowly to the edges.
