The beer has only a slight haze to its bronze body, and it is capped off with an eggshell white head that was actually a lot harder to bring out then I a expected when I first started to pour. This is a particularly tall, narrow glass, and it's not uncommon for me to have to do multiple pours just to overcome the amount of bubbles that tend to come out. That was not a problem with this beer. The aroma that doesn't have any of the skunk that I had with my previous Polish beer, and instead it's light and floral with a gentle hops and a bread malt.First sip is fairly heavy on the malt, but I kind of expected that from a lager. This style was described as a light lager, but this malt is noticeably heavy and sweet. The "open fermentation method" that is touted on the label may have increased the amount of malt that I'm tasting, but I have to admit that I'm fairly ignorant of the eccentricities of various small breweries and the way that they try to make their beers different and better. I can only judge by the end product.
Tip-in is too-sweet caramel and toffee with some light flowers up above. The middle is where the bread asserts itself and the flowers seem to go to the background and mix with some lemons as the malt begins to turn into that bread that I tasted in the sip. The finish is a twinge of bitterness before sweetness takes over again for the trail off that is a memory of the bread and lemons that had been there before.
Bottom Line: Not a bad beer at all.
3.25/5
