Pours into a pilsner a lighter to medium golden with a slight orange tinge,a fluffy but quick to fade white head atop.Grainy with a shot of spicy hops coming thru,quite sharp and in your face for a pilsner.The spiciness plays a big role on the palate as well wich was expected,a firm mildly sweet dough base is quite pronounced as well.A "bigger" pilsner full of spicy hops and a big doughy malt base.

Nice thick head on this Pil. Noticeable lacing on the glass. Great golden color and clarity you'd expect on a good Pilsner. Very earthy flavor and somewhat hop forward. I'd drink this one again.

Solid gold with an amazingly thick, lumpy, milkshake head that leaves chunky rings of lacing behind. Spicy Saaz-like leafy hop fragrance floats atop a light doughy base. Flavor is spicy, peppery hops, earthy greenness, flowers, even a little wood. I'd love more malt to balance it out, but I understand the focus is on the hops. Medium-light and crisp. Seems like the perfect style to showcase this lesser-known hop.
