Just a tad more gold color than the previous two beers, a bit interesting for a pilsener style. Nice and clear. With a thin layer of foam still at the top and a ring around the edge. The smell is very light and crisp with just a little bit of malt. I'm not the expert on Italian pilsners, but this would seem to fit the bill. A lighter taste, but still heart enough to make itself known. A bit more top bitterness is spreading itself to the edges of my tongue.
