Straw colored with a small white head. Bright notes of fruit, white wine, lime, a touch of pale malts. Bright and light but still quite flavorful. Finish is short but nice. Nice.

Draft at Dukes on work trip. Free new brewery ticks most excellent. Still hungover from last evening cocktails so a pils was nice intro back. Nose is fruity and some water crackers. Tastes of melon and kiwi and peppery and water cracker. Clean bodied. Quite nicep

On tap at Burgeon at the Arbor, pours a clear pale golden with a small white head. Aroma is loaded with divine white wine tanginess from the hops, gooseberry, and crisp grassiness. Flavour is wonderfully tangy, with lots of gooseberry, tangy hops, crisp grassy hops, and crisp crackery malt. Lovely expression of that NZ hop tanginess. Excellent.

10 oz pour at Burgeon at the Arbor - Little Italy in San Diego, California. The pour is a clear golden yellow with a minimal white head. The aroma is soft grapefruit, perfume floral, and cracker malt. The taste is the bright NZ hops right away, very expressive, balanced on top of an unfiltered bread cereal malt. The palate is unfiltered, medium bodied with soft natural carbonation and the bright grapefruit hops carrying the finish. A little flat as it warmed. Solid.

Aromas are fresh hops, wet grain and tree bark. Flavors are somewhat similar to nose with really fresh hops that work perfect in this brew. Great balance between bitter, sweet and carbonation. Satisfying and refreshing. I'll buy more whenever I can.

Can from Bine & Vine. Pours slightly translucent, light gold with a foamy/creamy white head that was significant. Aroma of pale malt and white grapes (or green). Med body. Flavor is white grape and Noble spiciness. Mild breadiness for hop moderation. Not sure what the folks in České Budějovice would think of this, but it deserves to be in the same grouping as Urquell. Good flavor.
