An untraditional take on a traditional brew. Tropical fruit, lime zest, grapefruit, and light pine derive from large Motueka & Centennial hop additions.

Clouded gold pour at Moynihan. Hoppy aroma. Pilsner bitter. Caramel malt. Kind of meh, does a job.

On tap at Beer Garage. Pours a clear light straw yellow with a white head that dissipates to the edges and laces slightly. Aroma has a good amount of hay and earthy grass with a bit of bread and light rind underlying. Flavor has a combination of straw and grass with a bit of hay and bread backing.

Can: Poured a clear golden color lager with a nice large foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of clean cereal notes with light residual sugar notes offset by floral hosp notes. Taste is amix of clean cereal notes with a light dry floral hoppy finish with faint residual sugar notes. Body is about average for style with good carbonation. Easy drinking lager with light floral hops notes.

Can at the apartment in Brooklyn - sourced from Top Hops. Pours unclear honey-gold with a creamy, white head. Not bad overall, is a little basic, with some sun-kissed pale grains, orange rind, straw, biscuits. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Balanced finish, more grainy biscuits and citrus rind. Drinks fine.
