advertised as "house beer" though there seem to be multiple house brews

pilsener colored, cloudy opaque, no head to speak of. doesn't smell like much, really
it had a big clean citrus/grassy hop flavor (especially considring the style). the bizarre thing is, i would have sworn the hops were NW US hops (cascade or challenger or something)
the malt character was slight and very light, but appropriate i guess

i didn't expect much after having more than my fill of euro pale lagers on my trip, as well as another zwickl i had tried (didn't excite me much), but the hops really threw me for a loop. i guess i was experienceing a new european variety
