Poured from a 16 oz can dated April 24, 2024. Aroma is hop forward with nice tropical citrus notes, passion fruit, floral notes and a touch of a spicy, herbal note. Light bready grain notes and a hint of alcohol. Pours a fairly clear, yellow-gold color with a medium large, fairly thick, frothy white head that recedes steadily to a small film that lingers on the edges. Moderate lacing and faint legs. Flavor has a light sweetness with medium light bready grain notes and a bit of cracker malt as well. Medium light bitterness and light alcohol notes. Medium hop notes of tropical citrus and dank pine resin. Lighter notes of passion fruit, floral and a touch of a spicy, herbal hop notes as well. Mouthfeel is medium light bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a solid West Coast Pilsner (whatever that actually means). It's got a nice hop profile in the aroma and flavor. A decent amount of bitterness and well hidden alcohol notes. The malt profile might be a bit big and a heavier mouthfeel than a traditional pilsner, but it carries the hops well. Despite not being particularly crisp, this is pretty crushable.
