Draft at GF's Lagerversary. Yeasty nose is the first thing that comes up. Suitably Golden color under a thin layer of foam. First taste has plenty of noble and peppery hops, the later being what I'm thinking Polish hops might do for a beer. Dry hoppy aftertaste on my tongue. A few sips on, the smell has more dry hop to it. Rather knocks down any specific maltiness, but that's what a dry hop style will do for you. --- Beer merged from original tick of (collab with) Bierstadt Lagerhaus Italian Pils on 06 Aug 2022 at 18:07 - Score: Appearance - 10 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 8.5. Original review text: Draft at Goldfinger's 2nd Lagerversary. Golden color in plastic cup, with a short, creamy looking head. Smell had mellow malts and hops, perhaps even a bit of Czech style Pilsner. Although the Tomyski hops are a Polish varietal. Taste has a nice floral and aromatic character. I guess the dry hopping is part of the Italian pilsener process, and it does show. Begins to show a bit of citrus further down. Like many GF beers, it's got more texture than a lawnmower beer for slamming. But as it happens, I was just mowing the lawn…
