Can. Golden beer with a cream head. Mineral and light spice aroma. Mineral and grass flavor with light malt. Medium bodied. Mineral and grass linger with light malt.

Super clear golden coloured body with a thinnish, single to perhaps two centimetre tall, pure white head that fades fairly quickly, but leaves a lace on the sides of the glass. Aroma of grass, rice, chamomile, jasmine and very soft but noticeable perfumey characteristics along with some light grainy bitterness and pungency, seemingly all from the malts, but strong in the nose. Light-bodied; Grassy, very dry and herbal flavours show up first with a lot of graininess and some light citrus elements, all with some bread and yeast noticeable, but a relatively clean, slightly soapy and perfumey note from perhaps some lighter alpha acid German hops that does come through near the end. Aftertaste is mild, fairly easy-drinking and balanced accordingly with most of the flavours showing malts, but some hoppiness is actually noticeable. Overall, a dry, crisp, herbal and very grassy product with some other notes, but no real complexities, layers or pungency, which could be construed as a good thing. I sampled this 50 cL can, from Day #3 of the Costco 2020 Advent Calendar, purchased from Costco in Arlington (Pentagon City), Virginia sampled at my house here in Washington on 03-December-2020.

Day 3 can from the CostCo Advent box. Pours clear bright gold with a decent creamy white head. Aroma is very mild - bits of bread and grass. Near med body - thks to carbonation. Flavor is bread, light grass, and something suggesting herb - just a bit of that. Clean. Crisp. Easy drinking.

Decent pilsener, but the previous two beers were a little better in this calendar. Crisp, straw and grain. A little corn. Golden pour with pretty good head and lacing, head retention. A little light tang that cloys in the finish but mostly crisp. Can from day three!

Half liter can, 12/3/20, day 3 of the Costco Advent Calendar. Gold, very slight haze, large frothy white head good retention. Aroma of grain and corn. Kinda buttery. Taste is lemon, orange, white bread. Thin. Decent. Kinda reminds me of better quality Budweiser.

500 ml can purchased as part of the 2020 Costco Advent Calendar at the Costco in Overland Park, Kansas. Exp 2022/05 printed on the bottom of the can. The pour is chill haze golden yellow with a fluffy one inch white head that falls with splotchy lace. The aroma is straw, soft malt sweet additional malt grain. The taste is straw, grass, herbal sweet and the malt grain to the finish. The palate is light to medium bodied soft carbonation and a bit of a watery finish. Just OK.

Swing top bottle. Bready aroma with a hint of butter. Malty sweetish flavor with soft grassy notes. Bready, almost medium bodied. Drinkable.
