The taste of this beer to me is debatable, it's says this beer is a ale but taste more like a lager to me. This is a very plain beer in every aspect and is nothing to write home about. It's a easy beer to drink, but at what cost to your taste buds.

Mouthfeel:
Active Carbonation
Light Bodied
Watery Texture
Bitter/Acidic Balance
Fizzy
Dry Finish
Definitely Refreshing

Brooklyn Brewery is a otherwise solid brewery, but if you want to try this shit, you won't think so. The summer season produces a lot of great summer ale choices, so stay away from this one. If you want to try a beer from this brewery, go with the Brooklyn lager.
