330ml bottle poured into half pint
L - gold / straw colour, crystal clear, a white 3cm thick frothy head with decent retention
S - grassy odour mainly, apple, lemon and hint of floral smell
T - bready m alts, grass and spices at the start - also detecting apple and honey in there as well. Moderately bitter finish.
F - lightish bodied, crisp finish, well carbonated. Not as dry as a typical czech pils.
O - good aussie version of a pils, if nothing particularly outstanding

Bottle purchased from Plonk in Canberra on a recent trip.
Pours a very hazy, and surprisingly dark golden-amber hue, with a frothy, large-bubbled head of off-white. Lots of streaming carbonation, which accounts for the head, although the head has crackled down to nothing soon after the pour. I think the beer is too dark, but otherwise fine. I don't mind the haze given it's bottle conditioned.
Nose is slightly metallic, and a little fruity or floral, giving a touch of crushed petals or rosewater. There's a slight estery character as well, giving a faint banana hint. Overall, it's not unpleasant, but again it's off-kilter for the style.
Taste is clean and crisp, with a slight metallic bitterness on the finish that just stings it enough to keep the palate lively. There are more of those residual floral aromas, that giving a lilting suggestion of sweetness; it's quite unusual and not all that pleasant, to be honest. Feel is light and crisp; suitable, and easily the most stylistically correct attribute.
Overall, it's drinkable enough, and not unpleasant—I also enjoy seeing a lager of any description in a brewery's lineup. But this is off-style in really weird ways. I don't believe it's meant to be experimental, but experimental is how it comes across.

This pours a hazy amber colour with a moderate sized, white head. Average head retention. This is just too hazy.
Mild pils malt aroma with a distinct sweetness. No hop character.
Malty and sweet flavour. Almost fruity. Light spicy noble hops. This has far too much malt character.
Medium body with moderately-low carbonation. Not really to style.
Yeah, this is easy enough to drink but it is boring and isn't particularly true to style.

Pours a slightly cloudy dark honey colour. Not much head to speak of.
The bottle says moderately hopped but I'm getting a fair whack of them when I stick my nose in the glass. Lighter style though. Tropical fruit rather than resinous. Nice. Not a lot of malt.
And there's the malt on the palate. And some yeastiness. Not a lot from the hops except a nice bitterness.
A bit hard to get the flavours because of the high carbonation. It's like the beer disappears as soon as it hits the tongue.
Reasonably refreshing like a pils should be.

Had on tap at the bierhaus.
Pours pale amber with minimal white foamy head, slow and light bead, some decent lacing. Looks pretty blah, really.
Nose is very fruity and floral, great deal of hops on there. Lots of pineapple and citrus with some acerbic characters lingering behind. Light caramel malt as well, pleasantly light and refreshing smell.
Taste is bitter from the start, but quite complex. Starts with a metallic bitterness, then some pleasant fruity esters come through on the mid with hints of dried apple and some sultana notes. Slight bready yeast comes through at the back, which is a shame for the rest of the palate. A green flavour hangs at the back, slightly tart and undercooked. Overall pretty nice except for that slightly cloying bready character.
A bit overcarbonated on the feel, has a very harsh tingle to it. Pretty thin and wet otherwise, not impressed.
Not bad overall, hang spoils the refreshing pils nature of it though.
