Pilsner hopped 100% with Riwaka in the kettle and dry hop. Built from Bohemian pilsner malt and a touch of wheat resulting in a medium-bodied, smooth experience with a complex and satisfying hop presence.

16 oz. can shared by tfontana. Aroma shows floral, pils malt, and lemon. The flavor is lemon, floral, malt. Crisp texture with a nice palate cleaning sense.

Can pour shared by AirForceHops--thanks, Chris! It's a hazy pale yellow with thin cap of off-white head and trace lacing. Aroma is mix of sweet vegetal/herbal and sweet fruit with vanilla. Taste is strong herbal/vegetal (bordering on skunk) along with milder citrus zest. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth, frothy texture, average carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, good strength but don't love the herbal mix with the sweet aspect. Well crafted but doesn't work perfectly for me. Having said that, interesting for a pilsner.

Aroma is hops, grapeskin, grains. Taste is crisp, nice hop flavor, balanced, clean. This is really nice.
