This may be the goto beer I've been looking for:
- a hint of sweetness
- middle of the road IBU's (30ish?)
- neither light and crisp nor heavy and thick
- reasonably highly carbed (2.5 vols; this is the easy part to adjust)
- ale, not lager
- 5-5.5 abv
It doesn't have much of a head -- maybe add a little Vienna? Otherwise, don't fool with it -- a definite brew-again.
