That's hard to beat.

A lagered ale? Yup:
1) Make an ale
2) Lager it
3) Profit!

Drinking impression: Full bodied and crisp without being heavy, very flavourful, just the right amount of carbonation and a gentle aftertaste. If Plato had to identify Beer, it might just be this one.
Would you buy it again? Absolutely. This is a beer I'd like to keep in stock as part of my regular rotation.
Would you drink two in a row? Probably, but at 600mL, one is often enough.
Best time and place to drink it: Sunday afternoon watching a classic Cheers marathon.
Out of ten: A nine. Remarkable for being so general purpose, this is close to what a definitive Beer should be. If you have any friends who think Blue is what a beer should be, pour them a Lug Tread and educate the poor fools.
