Appearance:Golden yellow in color. A little darker than a Bud Light or Miller Light. Slow Bubbles. Had about 3/4 inches of head and retained it for a couple of minutes.
Aroma:Has the aroma of bread dough. Presumably due to its yeast.
Taste:Quite pleasing taste. Not bitter. Not too sweet, but very easy to drink. Had it with a meal and I thought it was better before the meal than during and after.
Mouth Feel:Seems quite smooth with just the right amount of carbonation.
Drinkability:Very drinkable Summer brew. I would definitely buy this again and wouldn't hesitate to suggest it.
Score:8 / 10
