Grade: B+Appearance: Pours a pale, pilsner style golden yellow with a small head that disappears quickly. but leaves decent lacing.
Smell: Fresh cut grass jumps out, along with citrus, lemon and flowery hops.
Taste: Grassy and herbal hops take center stage here. Very hoppy compared to a traditional pilsner. The base malts are a bit bready, but well hiddin by the hops. The yeast takes a back seat, but is easy to find if I look for it.
Moutfeel: A big European flavor that is light and crisp. The high carbonation cleansed the pallet and left the mouth dry from all the hops.
Drinkablity: Very strong. The high hop character sets it apart from other pilsners. The dry flavor is a bit stronger than usual and would have preferred a slightly sweeter finish for a pilsner.
Overall: This is one of the best pilsners I have had. It is very smooth upfront, but then suprises ypu with a dry, bitter finish from the hops. This is an attractive looking, smelling and tasting beer. I would say this is a must try summer beer. You won't be disappointed.
