Golden clear with white head
Smell is peppery and light yeast with hop dominated smell that is herbal
Taste and feel are very good with light body spicey hop herbaceous and slight malt presence and lingering bitterness with dry finish
Overall a tasty hoppy yet balanced crisp lager with fresh flavor

Poured into pint glass: color is straw gold, a little opaque, moderate carbonation and a off white head with a mixture of bubble sizes, some light lacing on the glass.
Smell is grainy, straw, some corn like presence - a little off for a pilsner.
Taste is also grainy, more pilsner like malt less off/adjunct grain flavor, hops are crisp/bitter/earthy.
Mouthfeel is crisp, carbonated, a little dry.
Overall, a solid beer but a bit dry and grainy.

Had this on 2015-08-06 in Columbia, PA from a fresh 16oz can.
A - Mildly hazy straw yellow with a 1.5-finger white head and mild lace.
S - Mild bread lemon and floral.
T - Corn bread, lemon flesh and zest, grassy hops. Finishes with a spicy, lingering bitterness.
M - Light body and medium-high carbonation. Very crisp. Refreshing.
O - A bit one-dimensional but it's a good dimension with a nice balance of bread, spice and bitterness. I'd have it again.

Poured from 16oz tall can into a pint glass.
Appearance: clear yellow hue with a moderate effervescence and a very light haze. Head is a thick finger of frothy white foam. I like it.
Smell: lots of straw and grain with a fair bit of corn aroma. A little too corny for my taste, but it's certainly not the worst thing in the world.
Taste: slightly sweet, very grainy and a little bit corny, but with a very decent dose of noble hops and a light but perceptible bitterness. Toward the end there is a definite floral character, which might be a hops + light grain scenario. Still; not a bad Pils.
Mouthfeel: medium-light body with a massive carbonation and a great creaminess for the style. Love it!
Overall: highly drinkable, although the corn flavor is just a bit too much for me. Still; not a bad go-to for a Pils.
