A- This one pours a chill hazed light golden/yellow color that one can see through even with the cloudiness. The head is super white, soapy in appearance, and retains well, going from about two fingers before settling down to one finger. The carbonation is quite aggressive, with many columns of fizz rising steadily to the underside of the head. Lacing seems to produce a sticky, small patchwork of protein laced goodness. Overall this has a look of a nice Pils!
S- Clean and crisp smelling, with a good blend of malt vs hop profile......there seems to be some muted citrus mixed into things, some floral notes and probably more yeasty tones than I would expect to have with this style. The finish is again clean, dry and of mild hop bitterness.
T- The aforementioned aromas carry on into the flavors rather well.....there is soft floral flavor, light biscuity/cracker like bread character, clean hop bitterness on the finish and overall a dry quenching experience.....I don't think this has quite what the classics offer flavor wise but it is a solid offering in this department.
M/O- Light bodied overall with a decent amount of big zingy bubbles that pop and leave a tingle on the palate so I am happy with this aspect. The drinkability is good with this one, and I appreciate how easy this is to consume on a hot Summer day, such as the one I am in the middle of. Would pair well with something spicy or traditional pub fare. A very good offering that balances malt vs bitter....if just a bit flabby for the style. Cheers

This one pours a light golden yellow color, with a small head, and lots of lacing.
This smells like crackery and biscuity malt, bitter herbal hops, and some lemon.
This is very light, but extremely well done, with a herbal and bitter but clean hop character, some lemon and grapefruit, and a nice crackery and almost minerally malt character.
This is light bodied, super clean, and very crisp, with a wonderful drinkability.
This is exactly as the name describes, pure clean pilsner at its best.
