This beer carries a very interesting story. One of the first beers I had after a VERY LONG deployment to Afghanistan.

I'm currently consuming this fine beverage at Manas Airfield in Kyrgyzstan. Poured from a bottle into a plastic cup, military is only allowed 2 alcoholic beverages for a 20 hr period... :( I'm happy with this choice.

Mild bitterness and very drinkable brew, a great decision for a low tolerance airman. Pours with a decent head that retains; typical for a wit even in a plastic cup!

Freshness date printed January 7th. Its March 24th so despite its average mouthfeel its still pretty damn good. I'll be having this one tomorrow.

Serving type: bottle
