Peach skin, eraser, minerality, applesauce from a can, herbal leaves (oregano, maybe?). Admittedly, I am smelling these smells through the bottle alone. Rain and mountain river rocks. Heavier than a typical lager, but nice continuation of the mineral core from 'Chico's finest'.clear and clean 'empty note' that smacks of honeyed air. Good balance between heavy and ethereal light. First time I have had this lil guy. Good.

If an IPA and a lager met and had a baby... Tasty, easy to drink, pairs nicely with any meal. Buy it with confidence, it'll please almost any beer drinker's palate.

Hoppy, powerful, complex lager. Good for paced, relaxed drinking (movie night). Would order at a bar for casual drink.
7.0% ABV.

Nice brewski. The hops balance out the malty sweetness.
