On tap at the brewery. Aroma is hop forward, dank and oily. Lots of cat piss, gooseberry, tropical fruit, grapefruit and hints of berries. Light cracker malt, grain and bread notes with light alcohol notes. Pours a moderately hazy, pale, golden straw color with a medium sized, thick, pillowy, white head that recedes steadily to a small film that lingers. Fairly high lacing and faint legs. Flavor is slightly sweet with light cracker malt and bready grain notes. Moderate bitterness and light alcohol notes. Quite a bit of gooseberry, tropical fruit, grapefruit and tropical fruit notes. Lingering dank, oily, resin notes. Mouthfeel is medium light bodied and slightly crisp with medium carbonation. Low astringency and faint alcohol warmth. Overall, a solid hop-forward pilsner. Really nice hop notes with solid nelson and riwaka character. A bit maltier and sweet than I was expecting from a pilsner. I do wonder if this was a punch in the face when fresh.
