Poured from a 16 oz can dated October 29, 2020. Aroma is somewhat grain forward with some light fruity esters and faint floral notes. Light herbal hop notes. Pours a fairly clear, pale, yellow gold with a medium large, thick, frothy, white head that exhibits nice retention as it slowly recedes to a small film that lingers. Flavor is slightly sweet with light grain notes and hints of bread. Medium light bitterness and faint alcohol notes. Light herbal hop notes and faint floral and fruity esters. Mouthfeel is light bodied and fairly crisp with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a solid pilsner. Aroma is a bit too ester forward, but the flavor is better balanced.
