Chilled
Pours golden orange, clear with slight haze, healthy light tan head drops back, hangs around, laces
Aroma nutty vanilla, spice candy, apples
Mouth feel, clean, mouthful of carb, light to moderate body
Flavor nice malt backbone, vanilla, refreshingly sweet, spicy hops give nice balance without leaving any harshness or overt bitterness. Apple cider fruitiness in background. Hops have slight earthy undertones.
Finish pleasant hop bitterness, crisp carbonation and pH balance is crisp, refreshing, but not dry.
Overall, could add more Munich, no more golden promise, lower strength, shift more towards continental hops, drop IBUs a touch, maybe 10%. Need to do a proper lager, lower temps and longer.
