Decent pils. Pours clear golden with ok head. Crisp finish. Nice balance and easy drinking. Tap at Seatac.

Deep golden color. Nice crisp hoppy nose with underlying citrus notes beneath toasted malt and mineral notes. A real old school meets new school. Very odd but i like it. Medium body, modest to light bitterness with again toasted malt and minerally notes. Very quaffable. An odd beer that is full of charm

Clear golden with a white head. A bit on the hoppy side. Light floral seeetness with some zesty hops. Medium and well carbonated body. Impressive brew.

Golden with a thin head. Fruity pilsner hop, some malt sweetness, and more berryish fruit on the palate. An odd pilsner, actually.

Bomber from work. Aroma is floral, spicy hops, SweeTarts, bready, grain. Pours crystal clear golden with a one finger white head with great retention, leaving lace. Definitely looks better than any macro lager I’ve ever seen. Taste has a subtle hoppy bitterness with flavors matching the aroma. Mouthfeel is creamy, carbonation is just right for style, not harsh like the macros tend to be. Wow! I am impressed. Hoppy pilsners are one of my favorite styles, and this is perfection. I would put this right up against Pivo or Heater Allen or Prima Pils any time. Awesome.
