Pint on-draught @ Speights in Dunedin, New Zealand. $10.30 NZD per 500ml pint. Served in a bierkrug.
Refreshing and crisp with a clean pilsner malt backbone. Hop character is a bit lively, which is to say it's overhopped by traditional standards. Still, its floral and subtle lime/citrus character is enjoyable.
Call it an IPL if you must. Highly drinkable with shallow depth of flavour but rather good balance.
Simple, but very pleasant to drink. I inhaled my glass...could just be the New Zealand Summer heat, but I'm inclined to call this one of the better macrobrews I've tried in the last decade.
Low B- / WORTHY

On tap and served in a “handle” at Ratbags in Dunedin, NZ.
A: A typical pilsner: pours golden amber with streams of small bubbles. Excellent clarity. Decent head.
Aroma: typical in both quality and strength. More hops than grains.
Flavor: the triple hops may add some complexity and balance but this is less hoppy than most pilsners.
Feel: medium body; nice crisp carbonation.
O: a decent but unimpressive pilsner that’s poor in comparison to the Emersons Pilsner I had earlier in the day.
