Clear hay yellow with a small head that doesn't last. Wheat, lemon, and toasted malt are the primary players on both nose and tongue. It's more hop-forward than your typical pilsner. The hops make it taste skunky rather than contribute positively. Mouthfeel is crisp and on the thin side with medium carbonation. Not a whole lot to talk about here. Pilsners are a distinctly average style of beer, and this is an average- beer.

Average pilsner lookin' beer, 1/2" white head, below average clarity for style. Aroma dropped the Saaz hop. Good.

Light toasted Pilsen malts, honey malt, toasted bread notes. Very high carbonation takes away from the mouthfeel. Decent stuff, but not exactly flavor country either. Mowing the lawn stuff.
