Poured to a tulip glass.
A: The body is very crystalline with a yellow coloration of an almost too old beer. The head is white lacking retention and lacing. Aesthetically, it's not very pleasant to the eye.
S: The aroma is very close to a cider, having lots of sweetness from candi-like flavoured fruits and malts.
T: The taste is actually surprising because one can sense a bit of the yeast from the malts. This stands midway between a weissbier and an American Pale Ale.
M: The body is medium low. Carbonation is high. Alcohol is low. Bitterness is very mellow.
O: Even though it's far from perfect, it's easily drinkable.

330ml bottle - apparently part of something called the 'Mikkeller Running Club, Est. 2014'.
This beer pours a kind of hazy, pale golden yellow colour, with three fingers of puffy, rocky, and chunky bone-white head, which leaves some rather stellar bonsai tree forest lace around the glass as things very slowly abate.
It smells of gritty, biscuity, and grainy pale malt, tart lemon and orange fruity esters, rather prominent Teutonic gasohol astringencies, and some leafy, weedy, and floral noble hop bitters. The taste is crackery and doughy pale malt, loitering estery yeast, some lemon/lime and orange citrus fruitiness, more Euro petrol notes, and some weak leafy, earthy, and grassy hoppiness.
The carbonation is pretty tame in its barely palpable frothiness, the body a simple medium weight, and mostly smooth, with just a bit of pithy gasoline acerbity taking the wind out of the sails here. It finishes trending dry, the crackery graininess presiding, along with the remains of the German pilsner factory day.
Overall, this is more than an adequate rendering of yer typical middle European pils(e)ner, filtered through a Belgian contract brewer's idea of such a thing, i.e. the yeast still apparently having a say in things, yet everything else seems to be more or less in order, ja?

On draught at itap CWE. Cloudy straw color, lingering head. Fresh biscuit malt with crisp hops, dry finish. Refreshing, sessionable, great recovery drink!
