Pours a clean amber colour, one finger of white head, some patches of lacing. Smell is fairly hoppy, nice malt presence, light citrus some grassy earthiness as well. Taste is malty with some citrus kick, grassy at points, light hoppy finish and fairly clean all around. Good feel, medium carbonation, medium body. Really nice lager, full flavour and quite enjoyable.

Serving type: on-tap

It comes in a light golden amber color.

The flavor has a big malty and toasted flavor. There's a good bitterness on the finish. It has a decent mouthfeel. I prefer Brooklyn Lager with its more refreshing and hop flavor. Despite the bitterness, it still has that big maltiness.

It's quite a decent beer compared to the American Adjunct Lagers, but still a bit lacking for me.
