Light golden color with a thick fluffy head with decent retention.
Aroma with notes of floral and herbal hops, honey and lemon drops.
Flavor with notes of floral and spicy hops, pale malt sweetness, bread and crude grains. Dry aftertaste with a medium bitterness.
Light body with appropriate carbonation.
Decent, straight forward and easy to drink Pils.

Tried on tap at Beer Revolution, served in a standard tall glass. Can also be found at 1600 or 1410 Bier Haus last time I checked. A Belgian pils brewed by the famous purveyor of Duvel, this is a very pale lemon yellow brew, maybe just a shade darker than straw-colored, with around an inch or so of stark white foam. My initial impression is that this one does have some unique features, even if it falls short of "world beater" standards. Smells almost buttery, with a distinct spicy note that recalls coriander seed even though I am pretty sure there is no such spice in this beer. I also get some standard grainy pale malt and grass notes along with some less standard Belgian yeasty funk, although the latter is so subtle that it could purely be a phantasmal inference of my brain alone. Taste includes all these features as well, along with the fruity character typical of European lagers that registers as "white grape" on my palate, some lemon rind, a tinge of sour berry, and a dull white pepper spice ... Still getting that coriander-type huskiness. Light, crisp, and dry, almost carbolic, with a mellow bitter finish that features the tangy spice note from the initial impression. Body is light and just a little dextrinous, with the requisite aggressive carbonation. Leaves a rather nice lacing on the glass. Can't say this was a negative experience, as I seem to get some unique tastes and smells vis a vis most pilseners.
