A: The beer is relatively clear amber in color and has a light amount of visible carbonation. It poured with a thin beige head that left some lacing on the surface and a collar around the edge of the glass.
S: There are light to moderate aromas of bready malts in the nose along with some hints of nutty malts.
T: The taste is a little sweet and has flavors of bready, buttery and nutty malts. Although no bitterness is perceptible, there are just enough hops to keep the malts in check.
M: It feels medium-bodied and quite smooth on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: The smoothness of this beer is really enjoyable. It kind of reminded me of a Munich Helles Lager with a bit of an American accent.

I poured this beer into my tumbler at 45 degrees. I was wishful this was going to be a good beer since i had to travel 300 miles to get the $20 12 pack. The beer poured a pretty gas colored brew with a pretty tan head. The head did not last very long. The beer smelled a bit sour, that worried me. Well the taste was not too bad I thought. itty bitty bit of sour maybe and a little sweet. However after a few days of having one now and then I have decided I will not buy this again. It just aint worth the money to be average.

A- pours a dark amber color with a creamy white head that reduces to a small layer, good lacing all around.

S- pretty simple some sweet malt and just a bit of apple like fruitiness

T- sweet and malty with low bitterness, just a bit nutty with a sweet caramel finish

M- light body, medium carbonation, somewhat slick finish

O- very serviceable amber, good balance and went well with my buffalo chicken

Serving type: on-tap
