Final round for my first visit back to the Ghost Town brewpub. Am I digging my own ditch with this one? It’s a light, crisp, and slightly hoppy pilsner with a delightful floral finish. Easy sipper for the waning days of summer.

Single can pickup from Berkeley Bowl. Just added the beer to the database, but I'll also do a review for it. Only downside, I think this is a sure fire summer beer, so having it in winter, eh.
Pours a light golden color with a healthy amount of clarity but on the flipside, it has very poor/weak head retention resulting in no head in just a few seconds. The aroma reveals this is possibly due to the hefty amount of hop oils going on, this one is very hoppy in the aromatic sense, Mosaic and Citra especially dominating the nose, yeast and malt takes a back seat.
The taste pushes a significant amount of that orange and tangerine emphasis, just a light guava like hit behind that. Super light mouthfeel. The sweet angle of the hops keep it from seeming as crisp as some of the really good ones. Its definitely hopped more like an IPL. Doesn't reveal itself to taste like much of a lager/pilsner. Yeast ain't there in a perceptible way. I'd revisit this one, especially like on a hot day like today.
