O'Connor Proper Lager Review
Proper Lager pours glistening gold with a thin blanket of off-white head. Lemony bread aromas dominate the nose, and the body is bright and light with a slight soapy character. A Helles-inspired lager, it's a touch sweeter than a Czech pilsner, but crisper than a Märzen-style lager. Its floral, zippy finish has a hint of bitterness. Overall, it's a great palate cleanser before, during, or after a meal.
