3.08/5 rDev +8.8%
look: 3 | smell: 2.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 2.5 | overall: 3

Poured from a bottle into a pint glass. Grading for the style.

A: Dark gold, almost copper in color. Yields a one finger, creamy, white head. Some but not much lacing.

S: Bready malts. A little bit of sweet adjunct funk.

T: Malts. Primarily bready with an earthy finish. Not much from hops here. More flavor than most light lagers.

M: Relatively light and watery but with more body than most light lagers with moderate carbonation.

O: Not a bad beer for a light lager. I like it better than the offerings from the big three but it still is not something I will be stocking in the fridge any time soon.

If you go to an enforced "no glass" beach, your options are very limited so this is what I ended up with. Can't judge appearance out of a can but aroma was ok. First drink was actually a pleasant surprise at the front of the mouth, with decent balanced taste, though very heavily carbonated. As it went back though, it was as if it turned to water. No lasting flavor and no aftertaste. To be expected I guess at this ABV.

I later decided to pour one after I got home. Very nice deep golden amber color and decent head.

This is definitely not the best beer I have ever had, but for a light, it is not bad at all. Serves its purpose and I would drink again.
