Can from Craft Beer Cellar, New Orleans. Aroma is grainy malt with citrussy hints, some hay and bread, as well as a floral touch. Flavour is light to moderate sweet and light bitter. Likeable Pils, some subtle dry-hop qualities.

It's pretty plain but not a bad thing. People are talking about kids, and I'm just sitting here drinking.

Not bad, probably better fresh, but offers up a nice grainy pilsner base offset by notes of lemon, white bread, cracker, and apple, followed by a mild floral bitterness. Not bad.

On tap at Great Raft, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out grassy notes, straw and some crunchy, unfermented wort character. Flavour is crisp and bright, with a nice tangy, grassy hop character, with straw and a biscuity malt base. Clean and drinkable, but could use more hops. Solid enough.
