473mL can. Pours almost clear gold with small white head. Aroma sweet biscuit malts, maybe some straw. Flavour has some floral notes, straw, dense malts; alcohol is quite distinct. Slightly bitter finish curtails the sweetness. Feels a bit clumsy, dominated by thick malts, but for a 7% pilsner I assume this could be done much worse.

Decent foamy head and clear gold body. Aroma of floral hops. Flavour is soft perfume and just a hint of malt. Could use a bit more strength on the mouth. Pretty much by the numbers here, though the 7% is very well hidden.

Purchased at NB Liquor on my trip to the east coast. Pours a hazy golden-amber colour with a creamy off-white cap, decent retention and some good lacing. Grainy nose with some caramel, so not too pils-like. The taste is where this comes out with the Euro grass hops. Covers the grain. Not sure about the Impy Pilsner style with the look and aromas, but a good brew nonetheless.

Bottle from The Met Liquor Store, New Westminster, BC
Cloudy deep blond color, with orange reflex and with generous and persistent head. The aroma is very nice, earthy, with some manure, a British promise, followed by zesty coriander, of Belgian memory. It has a good body; some malt flavor and very light cereals, but missing some more interesting character; bold hopping, not spectacular but at least delivering some pale citrusy emotion. The final is long and bitter, but also simple.
If only they could translate some of the aromatic components all along the perception angles of this beer..
