Pours a foggy golden straw body topped with two and a half fingers of rounded, thick off-white foam; good head retention yields a chunky cap and collar along with a thick, webby spread of lacing coating the glass.

Aroma opens with tones of buttered white toast and honeysuckle followed up with gritty touches of dill meandering throughout the bouquet; crisp straw, brown bread crust, and a grassy hop close do well to regulate the back end in a slightly more traditional pilsner fashion.

Taste brings out a familiar tone of dill upfront into brown bread and wet grass; orange zest and peppery hay tone the mid-palate as an oaky sweetness imbued with vanilla essence comes fully to fruition on the back end.

Mouthfeel features a light body, boggy and moist, with moderate carbonation; dry and stable, though periodically wavering thinness becomes increasingly prominent past the mid-palate; finishes taut and spritzy, with the faintest bitterness lingering through the swallow.

An overall solid and well-executed Czech pilsner sporting an ample complexity alongside an unexpected, yet not unwelcome, savory quality; points for clean execution of a unique profile, though the sharper edges of the herbal notes can become somewhat distracting.
