16oz cancanned July 26 2022 into a tall Pilsner glass.
L: Pours dull straw gold w a 1" eggshell white crowned head w a cap, good lively carbo, excellent head & cap retention, some lacing, banding & lite sheeting.
S: Fruity, citrusy, spicy, zesty, lite perfume hops, a distant voice of dankness.
T: Bright citrus, citrus zest, caramelized malts, sweet & spicy hop flower, wildflower, tangy citrus, gently earthy and dry, light dankness. Full flavored.
F: Snappy & sharp, quickly drying med-bodied mouthfeel w a semi-juicy middle and a short, tart, extremely dry finish. Very effective dry-hopping.
O: The most citrusy pilsner I've ever had. Is it a Pilsner? If so it's kind of messy. Quite sharp & fruity. Not a s bready as I personally enjoy in a Pilsner but it is good tasting and dry. Perhaps too sharp in the style. It drinks easy enough that it's like a session beer.

Not sure what kind of pils this is. White head with lace. Clear golden color.
Biscuit and bread up front with toasted crackers. Grassy and zesty hops. Toffee. Crisp, clean. Pretty solid pils, lightly bitter finish.
