Poured clear with half-finger of white foam. Not really any retention or lacing. Not even the usual "film" of foam on the top of the beer.

Aroma is on the slight side. There is some sweet malt and light sprinkling of wheat. The malt is pleasant. Something else that I will refer to as an earthy scent.

The flavor doesn't really follow the style (not that I have extensive experience). There is some sweet malt and mild yeast. Not really any hops to be found. Finishes dry.

Medium amounts of carbonation and mouth feel. Just not that appealing to me.

Not a horrible beer but nothing makes this special. You could easily drink more than one at a time but the beer doesn't give you a reason too. Enjoy!
