A: Almost clear rich gold with little head or lace.
S: Grassy herbal hops, sourdough and a little corn.
T: Hay, bread and grainy malts as in the nose. Maybe some wheat?
M: Light but with a nice round mouthfeel. Clean with average carbonation.
O: Maybe like a crisper version of a Mexican lager. Not impressed.

A: Murky yellow with a short loose head holding up pretty well and leaving spotty lace.

M: Soft carbonation, light body and smooth texture.
