Draught @ Malt @ Mold. Rich orange color with small off-white foamy head, doughy aroma, low carbonation, smooth body, caramel like malt taste, medium caramel finish. Nice and balanced.

Sampled from a 12 oz can this beer poured a slightly hazy vibrant yellow-gold color with an enormous creamy yellow-white head that lingered and left good lacing. The aroma was somewhat fait with a dryish and mildly chalky presence and light floral and citric hops. The flavor was dry, bitter and chalky with citric acid and perfume. Long bitter, dry, chalk and perfume finish. Medium body. Not good.

Clear and yellow. Big head. Sweet BO aroma. Big nasty rude sharpipa impact. Too much for a pils. Bright & bitter. As session continues gets even more bitter. Mouth coating at times. decent co2. Not a pils by any stretch of the imagination.

Poured from can thanks Airforcehops hazy golden pour with a nice one finger head. Aromas of fresh citrus grass pilsner malt and hop. Taste is crisp mango bread and bitter citrus and is nice cold. --- Beer merged from original tick of SMaSH Project #1 Pilsner/Galaxy on 09 Nov 2015 at 20:32 - Score: 7

Can: Shallot and daffodil nose, hints of grass, pine, and rosehip. Shimmering amber, thick sticky head. White grape, papaya, grass. Medium body, soft carbonation. Very weird, but I rather like it, especially for the price.

12 oz. can from a 6 pack. Purchased at One Stop Market, Haverhill, MA. No can dating. Mostly hazy golden color with some yeast particles floating around. Aroma is indeed pilsner malt with the earthy hints, fruit and sweet baked bread.
The texture is lightly doughy with a crisp grassy finish. Pretty good amount of citrus and tropical fruit in the center of the sip. Lighter body. I actually like it better cold. As it warmed I did get an aspirin / off note from this. Nothing really off putting but it is here for sure. Overall still pretty easy to drink (when cold)

Pours gold into a shaker. White head with medium retention recedes to skim surface. Resin and tropical fruit aromas. Soft with bready caramel and sweet tropical fruit upfront turning to grapefruit pith in the lasting finish.

Can from the Drinkery Derry Deep yellow color with a decent bubbly white head and some spotty lace at the edges. Pine and Tropical fruit, I so adore Galaxy hops. Light bready sweet pilsner maltiness round this out nicely. Plenty of complexity for a Smash beer, great job LT!
