Pyramid Rollick Amber Lager
Beer-a-Day #218
Nice deep amber color with a finger’s-width of head. Aroma has a bit of caramel and lemon candy. Medium body, with a bit of roastiness. I like it.

My favorite season. It’s the color of dried apricot. Head is off-white with some staying power. Nice big grassy hop aroma.
