A golden pils with a thick frothy lacing white head (collapsing to a thin lacing white head). In aroma, crisp biscuit malt with grassy Saaz hops, light mineral notes, pleasant. In mouth, a nice crisp biscuit malt with herbaceous Saaz hops, light mineral notes, pleasant and smooth. Lukr at brewery.

Draft at Hintonburg Public House. Not sure why it isn't called Wandrr. Clear bright golden yellow color, small white head. Lemony straw aroma. Taste is mixed citrus, light peppery bitterness. OK

Seems like a pilsner-rating night. This 5.2% ABV version (34 IBU) is fairly filtered, but I see a touch of tiny particles (gets a tad hazy at the last pour). Golden colour with a big frothy-creamy head, good retention and nice fluffy-foamy patches of lacing. Aromas are quite bready with the yeast and malts. Hints of bananas. Thankfully, the mouthfeel is crisp, not syrupy as it seemed. The Pils malt gives more of a cereal grain taste than spicy. A decent touch of herbal hops lingers. Not my fave Pilsner, but much better than the nose lead to be.

On tap at Whiprsnapr, pours a clear pale yellow with a small white head. Aroma is timid, with light grass and biscuity malt. Flavour is similarly timid, but at least it's balanced - with subdued grassy hops and sweet biscuity malt. Needs much more hoppy bite and crispness. Okay.
