12 oz. can from Wegman's. Pours a clear-ish, orange color, with a fleeting, white head. The aroma is wet grass, water crackers, orange peel, rose, and pine. Sweet and sugary, with a hard, brisk bitterness. Medium body, hard, and abrasive. Overly harsh and not pleasant.

Can thanks to wombat23. Gold with a frothy, white head. Slightly floral aroma, a touch of lemon peel. Taste is bitter. Finishes both grainy and slightly metallic at the finish. Medium to light-bodied, moderate carbonation, crisp. Above average for the style.

Can. Pours hazy yellow with a white head. Light malt, hay, floral notes, with some bite at the finish. Good.

12oz can. Unfiltered looking body which sort of separates it from its peers, not sure why they wouldn't filter it. Lemony, bright, not really nailing it. Drinkable, has a decent noble hop tone, but the base isn't really right for the style. Not on the same level as a lot of the quality Pils being made in the US in 2021.

Sample at GABF 10/08/2016, thanks to my sis for assistance with note-taking. Hazy pale golden color with a thin white head that evaporates quickly. Spotty lacing. Grassy hops, fruit and malt in the nose. Light-bodied wit flavors of herbal hop, citrus and biscuit malt. The finish is mildly bitter with a short grassy hop aftertaste. Average overall.

At the source: pours light golden with a small white head. Aroma is lightly grassy, pale malts. Taste is lightly bitter. Kind of metallic. Some grassy aftertaste. Not a great pils.
