[Best served in a Lager glass]

Poured a murky orange in color with a small white fizzy head that was fully diminishing and had poor lacing. The aroma was of sweet malts with a light citrus hop scent. It tasted bitter and rather malty at first and finished with a nice biter-sweet hoppy flavor that stuck around on the taste buds for and average amount of time. Mouthfeel was light to medium in body with and creamy yet dry texture with a soft carbonation. Overall a great lager with a nice mix of maltiness and bitterness.

Poured from a 12 oz bottle into a 14 oz "pint" glass. Pours a orange straw color with a fluffy white head, very nice looking for a Vienna lager. Smells of sweet grain, very balanced, but a tad bland. Tastes of barley lightly roasted and very slight hops, nice for a lager with some great taste. Beer is carbonated a little on the heavy side but is very refreshing and goes down well. Overall, an above average beer.

Poured from a brown 12 oz. bottle. Has a light brown color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is of grains, some malts. Taste is the same, mild, some grains and malts, a touch of sweetness, a hint of bitterness at the finish. Feels light in the mouth and overall is a mediocre beer.

I poured this beer into my tumbler at 45 degrees. The beer was a dark amber tan color with no head at all. Ugly for sure. The beer smelled like beer nothing special. However I liked the taste. It was a sock knocker, but it was decent. For no head I thought it tasted fresh. I will try this again maybe on tap would be good.

Picked this up in Charlottesville with two buddies while in town for a football weekend. Dull, lifeless light brown color with a thin off-white head that caps quickly. Nose is sweet malt mixed with yeast and a touch of floral hops.

Flavor is refreshing and relatively balanced but simply not that tasty. A bit of skunk or sour or something colors the taste throughout and into the finish and aftertaste. The texture is a bit heavy, which limits its use as a lawnmower beer. Something just not right here. Not doing it for me.
