"A bright golden beer with a tight white head offers a light nose of grain and grass. Delicate taste reveals malt, honey, and biscuit notes, with a background of sweet malt and peppery hop. The finish is drying and crisp, with a short aftertaste that ends with a touch of sweetness. Low diacetyl is present but acceptable for this style, showcasing good malt flavor, bread, crust, and a pleasant hop bitterness."
