3.23 out of 5.00 | Drinkable

12oz single from Mac’s in Atlanta, GA, USA as part of their $8.99 mixed sixer.

Pour is a darker golden color than the BA designated style might suggest. Head and lace are also superior than a normal macro lager.

Definitely more bitterness in the initial tastes and finish, but this beer still seems a little astringent in terms of the edgy solvent alcohol and mouthfeel.

Not 100% sure what Magic Hat are trying to achieve here, but they’ve done enough in the past to earn my respect. Seems a bit “Malt Liquoresque” to me.

I dunno, it might be better for brewers like MH to be putting more effort into other styles, but for what it is, this is above average. Would I seek it out again? No, but there you go.
