(tap) clear, bright yellow colour with a small white head; faint aroma of noble hops, hint of jam; dryish flavour with a long, medium bitter finish

Draft @ Jacks Bar in The Cannery, San Francisco, CA. Pours a yellow color with a small white head. Has a fruity malty grainy grassy hoppy aroma. Fruity malty grainy grassy flavor. Has a fruity malty grainy grassy hoppy finish.

This was poured into a pilsner glass.
The appearance was a transparent yellow color with a thin white foamy head that dissipated immediately. Somewhat bubbly with a little bit of lacing.
The aroma had some good sweet clean grassy hops up front over some biscuity/breadiness.
The flavor takes all of the previously mentioned aromas to combine nicely. Lingering sweet aftertaste with a wet finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light on the body with a nice sessionability about it. Carbonation runs light with a great crisp malty sweetness to it.
Overall, really nice German pilsener that I would have again.

Bottle. Pours crystal clear golden straw, small white head dissipates slowly leaving decent lacing. on the glass, Aroma is grain, corn, grass, lemon. Flavor is light sweet, light bitter, grassy and clean. Medium body, medium carbonation, a bit of a lingering bitter finish. Decent for style.

Tap at University of Beer in Davis, CA. Pours light brassy gold with a white head. Light grassy aroma. Med body, maybe. Flavor is grassy, spicy, grainy. Hoppy enough to hold down the pale malt aspect. This could stand up with the best Czech versions, IMHO.
