This was on tap at the brewery, and they served it in a true pilsner glass.
A: Hazy straw with lots of carbonation and a fizzy head that disappeared almost immediately. Where did it go?
S: Strong floral hop aromas...more or less what I would expect and nothing more.
T: Sweet, floral flavors are dominant; it has no edge or crisp hop bitterness. The flavors are far too imbalanced to be enjoyable. In fact, the bite that I love in most pilsners is totally absent here.
M: Medium bodied and slick; good length and carbonation ("scrubbing bubbles" as Garret Oliver would say) throughout each drink.
D: Given the imbalance and lack of bitterness, low; though it's still somewhat refreshing.
Overall, this was a disappointment. The fellas at Bristol seem to have misfired on this one...did someone just forget a hop addition? Take a pass and stick to some of their other stuff if you're at the brewery.

Had this at old chicago, poured golden & bubbly witg 1 finger of white head. Above average head retention & lacing
S: Some soapy & citric hops
T: Slight floral hop & breadyness up front. Some grainyness & citric hops follow. Finishes crisp but with not much malt profile
MF: Light, almost medium bodied with low carbonation
Drank very easy, but lacked the guts, hops & complexity of last year's pils IMO
