Pours like a late Summer morning with creamy white foam. Aromas of candied citrus, honeydew and wildflowers precede flavors of limoncello, fresh cracked pepper and sourdough before a fresh, snappy, citrus-amaro finish. Featuring Saphir, Mandarina Bavaria and fresh Lorien hops (from Goschie Farms, Silverton, OR).

Look: Bright yellow and slightly opaque with a luscious-looking head that settles slowly to a lid and leaves great lacing behind
Aroma: Freshly sliced lemon, floral hop notes, freshly cut grass, pilsner malt, and herbal notes
Taste: Opens up with a lovely and vibrant floral bouquet that includes sweet box, southern magnolia, gardenia, and European olive amongst others. As the floral notes develop depth, a wave of freshly cut lemon comes in and plays nice as cut grass floats around in the backdrop of cracker-led pilsner malt. Closes with lemon and an herbal note
Mouthfeel: Light but full, clean, medium-high carbonation, and clean and crisp on the finish with little to no dryness
Overall: I dig it. A new one for me and a FH Pils to boot so was excited to try it and it didn’t disappoint. It’s a tasty Pilsner with plenty of fresh hop character coming through and Lorien does its job shining in it throughout. Recommended

16oz can served in a snulip. Got it earlier today, either at Chuck's Hop Shop or Full Throttle Bottles, probably the latter. There's a date on the bottom that starts with 09, but the rest of it is entirely illegible.
Pours moderately hazy yellow-amber, small head, little carbonation. Smell is grassy and floral, bright and green, some honeysuckle and some resin.
Taste is similar, but amplified in the fresh hop resin direction. Stronger bitterness, floral without sweetness, grass without bitter greens. Grains are there, too, but certainly not the main theme. Strong earthy bitter finish.
Mouthfeel is light, clean, quite dry. Very nice beer.
