Nice. A real tasty little number. Pours the classic, cloudy unfiltered orangey yellow color with a decent head and some lacing. Malts are the initial aroma and flavors which lead to a much hoppier finish than I was expecting. I like the stumpy, short bottles of SN, and the labels are very attractive and colorful too. I do like this stuff, and it is certainly above average, but I find SN’s products generally over-rated. To be honest a similar and better brew is the much under-rated and probably much maligned, Blue Moon. Purists tend to shun this Coors macro, but I like its value and drinkability ahead of this SN brew.
