Investigators returned Tuesday to the home of a Sheffield grandmother who was murdered more than two years ago.
Pat O'Hagan, 78, disappeared from her Sheffield home in the fall of 2010 and was later found murdered several miles away. Police have made no arrests in the case.
Tuesday, detectives from the Vermont State Police were back at her home, once again searching the property. They say this is routine in a case like this to check to see if anything may have been overlooked.
In November, a detective testifying in federal court said that Sheffield resident Michael Norrie partially confessed to playing a role in O'Hagan's murder, but then Norrie stopped cooperating with investigators. Norrie is already in custody facing federal gun charges in an unrelated case. Police have not confirmed whether Norrie is a suspect, but say they are confident in the work they are doing and they still need more solid evidence to present to prosecutors.
Norrie has six prior criminal convictions dating back to 2008. They're a mix of nonviolent felonies and misdemeanors involving stealing, drug crimes and running from police.
Investigators say O'Hagan's murder involved multiple people and indicated that those individuals may already be in custody for other crimes.

Cathedral Church of St. John the Divine
Upper West Side
- Free
Stephen Aviano
Time Out rating:
Not yet rated
Time Out says
Posted: Mon Apr 23 2012
The delay-addled construction on "Saint John the Unfinished" began in 1892 in Romanesque style, was put on hold for a Gothic Revival redesign in 1911, then ground to a halt in 1941, when the U.S. entered World War II. It resumed in earnest in 1979, but a fire in 2001 destroyed the church's gift shop and damaged two 17th-century Italian tapestries, which has delayed completion further. In addition to Sunday services, the cathedral hosts concerts and tours. It bills itself as a place for all people—and it means it. Annual events include both winter and summer solstice celebrations; the Blessing of the Animals during the Feast of Saint Francis, which draws pets and their people from all over the city; and, would you believe it, the Blessing of the Bikes, which kicks off the bicycle season each spring.

Dismay as Falmouth Premier Inn set to get go-ahead
7:00am Thursday 13th December 2012 in Falmouth/Penryn By David Thomas
PLANS to build a 74 bedroom Premier Inn hotel in Falmouth town centre look set to be given the go-ahead by Cornwall Council today.
The planning application is on the agenda for members of the strategic planning committee when they meet at New County Hall at 10am today (Thursday).
A report prepared for the meeting by planning officers recommends the plans are approved, subject to a number of conditions being met.
The report has been greeted with dismay by opponents to the scheme, who say it will destroy the atmosphere of the town centre.
The hotel would be built on the site of the Campeltown Way car park, close to Events Square.
Nearby residents and business owners have raised a number of objections to the plans, including fears over its impact on car parking in the area, the effect it will have on neighbouring flats and its impact on local businesses.
However, the report prepared for Thursday's meeting suggests none of the raised concerns merits rejecting the application.
It states: "The development would lead to the loss of 21 pay and display car park spaces, however, it is not considered that this loss of a relatively small proportion of spaces on a site adjacent to the Grove Hill and former T.A. Centre Car Parks would add to car parking congestion to an unacceptable level."
It adds: "The scheme would have an impact upon the amenities experienced by the occupants of the adjacent Fisher Court Flats who would lose private views from their kitchen and bedroom windows, however, the harm to the amenities of the Fisher Court residents does not outweigh the benefits of this development in terms of delivering a sustainable development which will attract people into the hub of Falmouth."
Rosemary Hobbs, secretary of the Falmouth and District Hotels Association, was one of many opponents to the scheme.
She said: "Having read the report from top to bottom, I think that for purely financial risk reasons, the councillors are very unlikely to go against the officer's recommendations.
"I think it is now a case of 'on their own heads be it'.
"I, and a lot of other people, believe this will ruin that end of town and it will change the atmosphere of Falmouth town centre for the worse.
"We are not angry, we are sad that for whatever reason the planning officer has chosen to interpret planning policy in this way."

After all the hard work put in by these people and the hope they were given by calling it in made no difference whatsoever.
It's in the wrong place and should be on the outskirts of town.... .,

Our strategy
Lead responses to humanitarian emergencies, including the current needs of Syrian refugees. In the long term, catalyze reform by enabling issue-based partnerships.
The context
Lebanon is home to profound political, ethnic and religious complexities that result in a complicated internal conflict between sect, confession, tribe and family. Key indicators such as life expectancy, literacy, school enrollment and per-capita income lag behind more developed countries.
Most recently, it has become home to the largest number of refugees fleeing the extended conflict in neighboring Syria, further straining a stressed infrastructure. Because there are no camps for Syrians here, refugee families are scattered in makeshift shelters and abandoned buildings, with little access to services and community support.

Our work
- Emergency response: Distributing clothes, blankets and household supplies to Syrian refugee families staying in temporary shelters and host communities.
- Children & Youth: Leading programs that help children process trauma and integrate into their new host communities. Providing creative activities for young adults to develop leadership, decision-making and other life skills.
- Conflict & Governance: Helping local organizations resolve conflicts and promote cooperation between refugees and host communities.
- Water: Improving access to clean drinking water in tent settlements and collective shelters. Educating families about proper hygiene and expanding sanitation facilities in rural areas.

Numbers Game: Pacers 105, Heat 90
By Ethan J. Skolnick
Numbers of note from the Heat's latest lethargic loss:
4: Fast break points for Miami. Sorry, the Heat's not winning that way.
6: Turnovers for LeBron James. He took the blame for them. He simply doesn't look like himself. It's not just the way he's playing. It's the way he's acting. Not talking as much as usual. Just looks out of it.
6: Pacers in double figures. Miami had four, led by James and Dwyane Wade (24). But is it a good thing that the Heat offense is getting bailed out by Wade threes?
4: Minutes for James Jones. He entered before Shane Battier. He picked up two quick fouls. He did not attempt a shot.
4-of-7: Mario Chalmers broke out of his shooting slump. And he had three steals. That ends the Heat's good news.
1: The number of rebounds posted by Chris Bosh until the closing minutes, when he added another. He also went 4-of-11 from the field, and 6-of-11 from the line. He's got a big belated birthday bash lined up for Tuesday night. Hopefully, he comes out of that energized. At least he took the ball to the basket a few times early Monday. But overall, not enough.
17: The minutes played by Ronny Turiaf, the same number given to Joel Anthony. Turiaf still doesn't really know what he's doing (he needs full practices), but he's playing at a different speed than his teammates.

Students, parents and teachers meet formally twice a year for a Student Led Conference. Comprehensive evaluations of your child's progress in school are conducted on an ongoing basis throughout the year, and your child's teacher is prepared to sit down with you and discuss current concerns. Written Progress Reports are provided for Fall and Spring in addition to the conferences. These Progress Reports become a part of your child's permanent academic record.
Conferences are an opportunity for our children to share their school experience and are vital to the educational process. It is your responsibility as a parent to participate in this exchange in order to enhance the educational experience of your child. As these conferences impart direct feedback and are integral to the continued educational growth of the child, both parents are expected to attend. Written progress reports will be distributed to each child's parents at the end of the year. The Head of School may sit in on Parent/ Teacher meetings.
Scheduled conferences
involve approximately two hours of preparation time by the teacher and can be
expected to last 30 minutes. We allocate two days for each conference period.
The school will be closed on these days.
- Childcare is available without charge for siblings of MOMI students only while their parents attend conferences.
- The school is not able to offer childcare to toddler siblings of MOMI students or children who are not enrolled in our school.
- Childcare is available for families who choose to leave their children at school for an additional hourly rate.
- All children using Childcare on conference days must be checked in and out by a parent or guardian with the childcare attendants.

Cogitans' campaign thread
Well I owe some people here to make this thread about my whereabouts for the short time I were MIA in terms of PP.O.
The short story is that I have been campaigning for our national election that was held here in Denmark last Tuesday the 13th. As it has been a week now, I'm ready to write a little about what transpired for those 3 weeks in my life.
If you don't really care, just stop reading here. But if you do want to get a look at a local election campaign in Denmark from the inside, please continue.
I should also put a disclaimer that I do not consider this a political thread in the sense that I will talk about what I have been doing, and about running a campaign, but will keep it clean of political statements.
In Denmark the Prime Minister can call for a general election at any time he pleases, with the only restriction that one has to be held at least every 4 years.
Our Prime Minister did so Wednesday October 24th, with the minimum of 3 weeks for the campaign. 9 parties were to compete for in 10 regional constituencies for 175 seats in parliament (+2 elected at Faroe Islands, and 2 in Greenland). Those elected will then form the government coalition afterwards.
The Beginning
At the time I heard the news, I were sitting at home, with no confirmed attachment to any candidate. I should not that I have been member of a political party for many years, and have been a member of more than one election campaign before.
I have had a few candidates enquire about what I would do in case of election being called earlier this year, but I have held all off, because I'm still hunting for a job, and could be about to move.
But as the Prime Minister dropped the bomb, and I were still unemployed, I pondered for a few hours, then picked up the phone and made a call to a young female candidate who has her local constituency in a suburb of the town I live in. She were one of the once that had asked me earlier, and I felt that when I could make my own choice about what candidate to run for, I would take that opportunity.
She was very happy to hear from me, and I felt right away that I had made the right choice. Some of the other candidates had more good people I knew running for them here in the big city, but she were standing more on her own, with only the party members in her local area, so I felt that my work would be appreciate the most in her campaign. Most of these other people were older or had jobs to attend to, so the day to day help I could provide would be much needed.
The First Week – Getting Things Started
As I came in so late in the campaign, a lot of things were already up in the air, and I just had to grab the balls I could and make the best of them.
There were many things that had to be taken care of right away. Mainly getting a lot of debate meetings set up. My candidate had a set panel with a group of other young candidates from other parties. They had sent out letters offering a debate, mainly to educational facilities. My first order of business, were therefore to call some of these places, and follow up on these, and trying to put together a calendar.
That meant that the very next thing I had to do were to set up a layout for a calendar, and find out how the easiest way were for me to keep that updated for the coming weeks, and distributing copies of it to people who needed to know what were going on at all times.
Also I had to get an overlook over our budget, our materials and our advertisements. The budget was maintained by a local guy, and we also talked about fundraising.
As for materials to be handed out (roses, balloons, candy, pamphlets, flyers, etc.), much of it was already in the making. But we did have to think about constructing texts for some of the flyers that we printed along the way.
As our budget was not final, we didn't know how much we had for adds, but we did start to construct some of the print adds we wanted, and put someone in charge of ordering them.
Week Two – The Long Haul
Once you get into the second week you get a lot of the early stress away, and you can start focusing on the actual elements of the campaign.
I still had to keep scheduling debates and other activities and maintain the calendar for the remainder of campaign.
Other than that the new focus was two things. No. 1 I had to help my candidate evaluate her performance in the debates with others, and the second to get to focus on media.
We got some good press early on. We were lucky enough to benefit from getting our former Prime Minister to back our campaign. When we found out he would be in our area I convinced his secretary to clear a few hours of his schedule to go on campaign with us. That gave us some TV and written press.
[img width=450 height=337]http://www.sitecenter.dk/morellen/nss-folder/scrapbog/Nyrup.jpg[/img]
Next we benefited from my candidate being our party's spokesperson on agricultural production. So we got media on launching a new policy on animal welfare.
Here is a picture from when we visited a farm to promote the proposal.
[img width=450 height=337]http://www.sitecenter.dk/morellen/nss-folder/scrapbog/PA315649.JPG[/img]
Finally we got lucky, even though it happened on a sad background, as some scandal hit with some pig farms suffering from neglect hit the press. We got a lot of attention on criticizing the secretary in charge of the area.
Week 3 – Keeping the Final Momentum
As we hit the final week it were a lot like week two, except that the calendar were getting final. I had to turn down a lot of things the closer we got to the end, and the trick really is to not tell your candidate everything. It will only drive her focus away from being present at her public events.
As we still tried to get in the media whenever we could, with the things we had planed, what really is the main thing is to try and keep momentum up. I could tell that my candidate were getting still more tired towards the end, and you just have to try keep her going. Get her to smile once in a while, make sure you take as much off her hands as possible to give her time for sleep, and remind her to get some food.
The candidates, who die down here, are the ones that end up not making the cut.
The End – Getting the Results
As we got to the Election Day the campaign were over. I had to be at one of the polling stations as an appointed observer of the election. So after we got the polls closed, and got our local result counted were I raced down to our local election party for my Party.
Unfortunately there was not much to celebrate. Much as expected our side lost again, and our Prime Minister had ensured another term in office. So pissed as I was I decided to drink my brains out with a lot of other young campaigners.
I got home around 6am and slept for a few hours. When I got up I jumped in the shower and went downtown to have lunch with my candidate. We had set up a radio interview in the afternoon, so I followed her out there, where we got some coffee and did an interview about still not being sure about the personal results. We knew our Party would get 7 seats in our region, but as the personal results were not in know one knew who of 11 candidates would occupy those seats.
Next stop were the suburb of her local constituency where we met with the local Party members, and some of her family members. We waited for the result there, but they kept pushing back the deadline. Finally after sitting there a few hours, we got the word that my candidate got in, with 3rd most votes among our Party candidates.
So that day we did get to celebrate a little, and we all got out for dinner.
Afterwards in the past week I have only tried to consume the result as a whole. I started by sleeping for about 24+ hours, and have now worked myself into a normal routine again.
I hope you got a little out of my little campaign story. I'm sure I left some things out here and there, so if you're interested don't hesitate to ask questions.
Thanks to PPE for the sig.

Forty years of fire calls ended Tuesday for a retiring Nashville firefighter. Lawrence "Paul" Rainey - an engineer at Station 31 - is retiring, and the day was full of heroic stories and pride as his son follows in his footsteps.
"It's more than a job. It's basically a way of life," Rainey said.
The man, whose fellow firefighters nicknamed "Lizard," first joined the department in 1973, following in the footsteps of his father-in-law.
For the past 31 years, he's served station 31 as its engineer, which means he was in charge of getting crews to the scene and getting water.
It's not always been an easy ride, and he's had his share of close calls.
"One of the guys looked at me and said, 'What did you do to your ears?' And I went and looked in a mirror and my ears were just puffed out where they were burnt," Rainey said.
But on his toughest day, Rainey helped rescue a child.
"It was down here at Old Hickory Boulevard, where an asphalt truck fell on a car and buried a little 12-year-old girl up to her waist in hot asphalt," he said.
In his 40 years on the job, Rainey's been voted Fireman of the Year and received awards for heroism, but the biggest reward may be that his son became a third-generation firefighter.
"Yeah, he's always been my hero and always will be," said son Colby Rainey.
On Tuesday, the father and son got to work side-by-side, putting dad's words of wisdom to work.
"'Just do your work. Do what you are told and the rest will take care of itself,'" Colby Rainey said.
Always calm, cool and collected, Lawrence Rainey is eager to share work stories with his son.
"It's usually, 'Yeah, we had flames showing through the roof, and you should have seen the guys going in,' and all of this other stuff. He really likes to blow it up good. It's awesome," Colby Rainey said.
Now, maybe Lawrence Rainey can share those tales while fishing with his grandsons as the fireman turns fisherman Wednesday.

Work with me here - I never get a chance to pour this scrappy little brew because it usually gets handed out around the campfire or at a party for immediate quaffing.
That being said, it is a feisty, full bodied beverage with a little grit to it and a nice finish. If this is a regional beer then everywhere outside the West Coast should be clamoring for it. This should fill the niche left by Rolling Rock once RR went corporate.

Poured from a stubby a clear light golden with a one finger white head very sprtizy looking,wow nice aromas going on definent lemon rind and grassy hop aromas melding nicely with some toasted grain and maybe a touch of iron.Very sturdy mouthfeel no wimpy yellow fizzy lager here quite grainy in the flavor and mouthfeel department quite clean with very nice herbal finish showing a generous amount of hops thrown in this brew.Now this would be a go to beer for sporting events or get togethers for me,a well built American lager old school and damn good.

Appearance This one poured a pretty yellow in color with a light orangish tinge. The head came up nicely and was white as the driven snow.
Smell The malts are very light and easy, not grainy at all, with a bit of vegetable sweetness.
Taste The malts are very light at the taste as well. Its definitely on the lighter side of the style category. Theres not a lot of complexity here, but the flavor doesnt offend.
Mouthfeel This light-bodied American Lager has some good, lively carbonation and finishes crisp.
Drinkability I dont know if Id want to session a case of this, but it was a solid entry in an otherwise tired market.

I had this beer out of the bottle (no glass on hand), but what a sweet bottle it is! The only way it could be cooler is if it came in one of those oil can looking things. The smell is sweet grain tempered with spicy hop, and just a wisp of alcohol.
The bottle gives up a great, crisp, crackery grain flavor, that lifts up spicy hops in the backend. Very smooth. Gets a bit grassy with warmth. This is pretty much like if you took many of Hieleman's products, stripped them of their off- flavors, boosted the body, and bittered them a tad more artfully.
Mouthfeel is nice. Midwieght with plenty of carbonation but almost no sting. Drinkability is great, my only beef with this as a session beer is it is just a bit on the filling side.
This is a great product. It is an easy-drinking macro-style beer brewed with high-quality ingredients. A well-built beer, but still makes you kinda want a plastic cup and a cigarette.

Session Lager from Full Sail Brewing... 5.1% alcohol. Short and fat bottle with simple red label reading Session Premium Lager printed on front. Looks like a session beer.
A- Pours a crisp golden fluid that has a one and a half inch head that falls to a froth and ring around glass. Lacing is very light but there.
S- Smell is of fresh malty goodness, grassy hops and light and sweet yeasty scent in the backbone of the nose.
T-M- The taste is a fresh and in your face lager with massive drinkable qualities. Upfront is a grainy malt with slight dry qualities, second is a faint grassy hop oil flavor that offers slight bitterness and to finish is a perfectly carbonated watery smoothness that rolls off the tongue with ease.
D- The drinkablity on this session is on the outrageous side perfect if you can find a whole lot of these badboys to take out for a night.

I was in the mood for a lager when I came across this one and it didn't disappoint. The aroma wasn't very strong and the taste had a touch of sweetness to it, perhaps from fruit. An earthiness was also noted. It had a medium body with light carbonation on the tongue. I wasn't blown away by it, but it was easy to drink.

Generally I like American ales and prefer German lagers, but I thought I'd give this PNW premium lager a try.
I picked up a 12-pack at my closest Fred Meyer for a decent price. Bottles are an unusual 11 fl. oz. which recalls the Oly stubby of yore.
This beer really grew on me as I drank it over the course of a couple weeks. Slight toasty/caramel flavor, full-bodied for a lager, with great mouthfeel. Definitely better than any of the American adjunct lagers I'm used to.

11 oz brown twist off stubby ... why 11oz? Reminds me of a Red Strip bottle.
A- Crystal clear pale golden yellow with three fingers of white head that dissipates to a thin lace.
S- Clean grass grain in the nose mild herbal hop as well.
T- Very clean palate with a powdery, floury malt character. Soft oily hop is modest and a light yet balancing bitterness. Suggestions of white grape skin, mildly hay-like.
M- Excellent rolling crispness, just enough body in a semi-dry beer.
D- Not surprising that this is very drinkable ... the name says it all.
Plain but perhaps the best basic lager I have had in a long time. Shame this is not in MA cause I'd buy it by the case.

Stubby 11 ounce bottle, pours clear very light/golden amber, quickly departing near white head, leaves nothing behind on the glass. Just a faint wiff of adjunct on the nose, corn?
Best I can say is, its light and easy drinking...not a lot going on here. Just a thin layer of malt, just barely a hint of hops to dry the finish. Hot summer day, ice cold..you get the idea. Not worth driving cross town for.

Appearance: moderate carbonation, 1 inch head, yellow-gold in color, clear--nice looking botttle
Smell: corn, toasted malt, and sugar
Taste: corn, toasted malt, and sugar with a bit of hops around the edges.
Mouthfeel: slightly sweet, high carbonation, light body
Drinkability: To me this is in the lower half of this style. It walks a line between pilsner and American adjunct beer. Certainly not the worst I have had in the style, but nowhere near some others. I might drink this more if the abv were a bit lower, but for me this is a one and done.

The beer pours a clear golden color with a white head. The aroma is full of grain with a little bit of grass from the hops. Smells like a pale lager should smell, only without the harsh notes you sometimes get in the non-craft versions. The flavor is very similar. I get some grain and sweet biscuit malt notes, as well as some grass. No bitterness. Thin mouthfeel and medium carbonation.

Opened 11 fluid ounce "stubby" bottle, poured into Wiessen glass. Cap reveals "Paper," which beats rock (although I am a huge rock fan).
I usually don't judge on packaging, but the stubby bottles are great and let the drinker know that this is a different beer - not what you are use to. Box is also creative and good marketing effort for full sale.
Poured a nice head of 1" that dies down to a nice foamy layer of foam across the top of golden-amber brew. Nice stream of bubbles rise to top.
First smell is of malts and sweetness, further reveals slightly floral/herbal tones. Taste is pleasant and very smooth. Malts are nice and provided just enough sweetness while giving a nice dry finish. As many bubbles rise in the glass, one might expect something more attacking, but bubbles are quite pleasant and easy to drink.
For $10.99 a 12 pack, this brew is an excellent alternative to the BMC brews. While I don't often drink a session brew, Session is a great choice. Very easy to drink, and very much worth a try.
I keep these around now for Whenever.

Appearance: Poured a clear bright gold, with a foamy pure white head, nice lacing.
Smell: Clean grains, cracker malt, hops are a bit leafy and spicy.
Taste: Smooth, clean and mildly dry body of straw like malt, hint of bread dough, hops balance out the brew with a nice restrained floral and grassy bitterness and a hint of lemon rind, dry finish with lingering hop bitterness.
Mouthfeel: Smooth, mildly crisp, dry throughout and in the finish.
Drinkability: It lives up to its name, i would definatly enjoy knockin back quite a few of these with some friends, cool bottle too. A basic beer brewed right.

I found this beer by mere chance. I was at my local grocery store, and the name of the beer begged me to give it a try!! I`m so glad I did!!
A .. Very nice golden color, pours up beautifully, nice lacing throughout the beer
S.. Not a whole lot of aroma, but nonetheless, it is pleasing, and reminds me of fresh made bread.
T.. Very nice and quenching, not overly bitter, nor sweet. Very pleasant, and finishes dry, wich is delightful.
M.. A very satisfying mouth feel going on here. Not to heavy, not watered down, but just right!
O.. Overall .. I love this beer!! Its not overly complicated, and really hits it spot on!! Price is very affordable!! This is my new go to beer hands down!!

Didn't care for this at first, but realized I had let it get too warm. Drink it cold and it goes down easy, slightly sweet with a crisp finish. Lightly carbonated. Drink it only slightly warm and it has a wheatish and unpleasant aftertaste. So plan on drinking it fast and having several. True to the name.
Wish the bottles were 12 ounces instead of 11. Have a nagging feeling that I'm getting shorted somehow, even though I knew about the size before I made the purchase.

11oz medecine bottle pulled from fridge poured into SA perfect pint glass. best before 2 19 11.
pours out a clear watery straw yellow color with one finger of soapy white head that quickly faded to a thin ring and just a bit of patchy foam. tiny spot or two of lace.
not much of an aroma. some light cirus notes, grains, and a mineral, cooked corn like lager aroma.
taste follows aroma. light flavors all around. light body and mouthfeel. cooked corn and grains balanced by a light lemon citrus hop. a hint of skunk. over carbonated.
overall, good for the style, but way too light and fizzy, too reminiscent of a macro. i wont buy again.

Session Lager is a "concept" beer, complete with unique packaging (11 oz stubbies in a 12 pack, with barely a mention of Full Sail on the label, twist-off tops that aren't exactly easy to undo). It's possibly the worst beer in Full Sail's current line-up, but it's deserving of consideration since this is a purpose-driven beer; it is suitable for a large number of occasions, most of which involve outdoor activity and the kind of company that has no interest in hoppy or dark craft beers. This is an anti-snob microbrew.
Marketing aside, how's the beer? It's a decent, all-American golden lager, very close to what the megas make. It has perhaps a bit more ooomph, just a bit more flavor, and a cleaner profile. But it's got those mild if prickly, tangy hops in the nose to remind you of cheaper brews. The finish is succinct and keeps you coming back for more; drinkability is very high which stands to reason since that is the beer's sole reason for existing. I imagine many will love this but most BAs will probably taste this, think "hmm, ok, fine" and quickly move on to something more substantial. Bring this to a party, or on a trip where trunk space is at a premium (the stubbies take up less room than longnecks). This is a good choice if you are spending time with those suspicious of beer snobbery, but the beer tastes much better poured into a glass, hence you may need to blow your cover.

Yellow-gold color with fine frothy head that stands up. Moderate head retention. No chill haze, nice and clear.
Clean approach to a lager without the DMS. Mildly sweet malt aroma with bread dough notes. Some deeper tones from the bread crust. Very light citrus and fruitiness deep in the background.
Again, nice and clean on the palate with round malt notes that have some sweetness without being too much. Very gentle bitterness to balance out the malt. The fruitiness is a little more pronounced in the mid-palate than it was on the nose and the finish returns to the toastiness of bread crust.
Moderate weight in the mouthfeel with the balance between malt and bitterness doing a nice job pushing the flavors all the way through the palate. Relatively soft and definitely smooth.
5.1% alcohol pushes it up against what would seem to be the limit for a true session beer, but it was obviously done with purpose. Really a nicely made lager that is a cut above what is offered in its class by the big boys.
Running the grill during your summer BBQ and want to keep it under control for the duration? This beer should be in the cooler for you.

Pours golden colored with white head. Aroma is malty with faint hop aroma. Taste is mostly sweet malts with a little hops in the finish. Maybe some fruitiness, but it is mostly crisp and clean. The carbonation gives it a little bite, but works well with this light mouthfeel (but fuller than a lot of beers in this style). This beer lives up to its name in drinkability, I could easily drink a few these The only complaint I have is this is often too expensive, but I recently found it on sale for $10.00 a twelve pack. I'd reccomend this one, this is one of the best lagers I've had.
