Poured from a 16 oz can dated 08/05/2020 into the Pilsner glass.
A - A very light lemon yellow color, exceptional clarity, leaves nowhere to hide. Carbonation is lager style, gentle and rhythmic. A quick to leave snow white cap formed after he pour, Lacing however is lovely.
S - Cut grass, a bit of sauvignon blanc, some lemongrass, and lemon zest, a hint of biscuity grain, but largely fruit and grassy. Very aromatic.
T - A departure from the nose, that Sauvignon Blanc is there, driven by the Hallertau Blanc hops. There is a delicate spicy part, maybe from the Saphir hops. White pepper mashed up with tangerine peel. Quite nice
M - Start is sharp, making its presence known, then a wave of drying runs along the palate. Finish is ashen in a good way, There is a bristle to the experience, it all seems in a hurry.
O - A wonderful offering, crisp, sharp, aromatic, Hoppy nose that said the grain bill stands up to the test, maybe its the use of some Vienna malt in he grain bill, I like the balance. Worth seking out.
