D+ / 2.5
look: 2 | smell: 2.5 | taste: 2.5 | feel: 3 | drink: 3
rDev: -47.6%

Shared with beachbum1975.

22oz. brown bomber poured into a pint.

A: Light yellow pour. No head or lacing.

S: A bit of oats. Oats? Grainy, a touch of sweetness. No hops. FFF?

T/M: It's a light beer. Or is that lite? There might be a touch of hops in there... lightly floral. Grainy and lightly sweet. I still think of oats. Light body is lowered carbonation.

D: It's light but not good enough to want to drink.

Serving type: bottle

They play Australian Cattle God-herding music. One of my co-workers said their soundcheck "sounds like a bunch of retards washing dishes while falling down a flight of stairs." Which made me laugh, but didn't stop me from liking them.

looks like it's present tense. They are still a band.

I played in Gorch Fock...
the beer is made by our buddies at 3floyds brewery outside Chicago...
it's a summer Helles style...

we stopped gigging in 2008, after three records.
we will do a reunion in austin this OCT...

I just purchased a bomber of this beverage last weekend. I like 3 Floyds anyway but I couldn't pass it up when I saw the name.
I'll probably go into the wee hours.
