3.15/5  rDev +2.3%
look: 3 | smell: 3 | taste: 3 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.5

Appearance: clear yellow in color with a thin 1/4" head. The head fell away immediately. No lacing. Carbonation levels looked nice.

Smell: soft hint of grass and a bit a malt sweetness.

Taste: more maltier than expected, but that was the only flavor profile that stuck out. Hint of grass and barely any bitterness at all.

Mouthfeel: crisp from start to finish. Light in body. Clean aftertaste.

Drinkability: slightly above average if you are looking for a simple lighter beer. No great shakes here, not one I would venture to have again.
