Pint draft at The Trappist in Oakland, California. The pour is a mostly clear golden copper with a small white head. The aroma is mineral, spice floral hop and cracker malt. A fresh traditional Czech pils nose. The taste is a clean blend of the spice floral hops, the fresh cracker malt and finishes dry with the mineral character. The palate is light bodied with soft to low carbonation and the dry mineral floral hop finish. Nice.

Keg at the Flavor Bistro with the RBWG 2016 crew. Pours clear gold with a creamy, white head. Odd nose, light vegetal notes, biscuits, hay. Lightly sweet flavour, with more vegetal notes, dough, white bread. Light bodied with average carbonation. Bitter finish, with more doughy biscuits, hay, grass. So so overall. A very basic lager.

Sample at Monk’s Kettle. Clear yellow-gold color with a medium white head that evaporates steadily to an outer ring. Short strings of lace. Spicy hops, fruit and malt aroma. Light-bodied with flavors of grassy hops, fruit and bready malt. The finish is mildly bitter with a grassy hop aftertaste. Decent overall.

Draft at brew Santa Rosa. Light hazed yellow straw coloured pour with a lasting sticky white froth. Aroma is raw pils grains, fresh Nobel hop. Flavour is composed of clean pils grains, semi sweet grains, light Nobel hop. Palate is semi sweet, not that crisp, moderate carbonation. OK , pretty crushable pils.

On tap; glad to finally get around to rating. Aroma has a nice sweet graininess to it with some white bread notes. A light floral hoppiness with a bit of a spicy woodsy note as well. Pours a slightly hazy yellow straw color with a thick, creamy white head that exhibits nice retention as it slowly recedes. High lacing and small legs. Flavor has a light sweetness with a nice grainy character and some bready notes. Medium light bitterness with some floral hop notes and a bit of a spicy hop character. Mouthfeel is medium light bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a very nice beer and I often go for this at bars but have never gotten around to rating. Easy drinking with great malt and hop balance.

On tap in Santa Rosa. Now here’s a fucken good brew. Clear yellow appearance with a big white head. Floral / grassy nose with a hint of minerals / earth. Bone dry. Grassy herbal flavor with some hop spiciness. Super chuggable. One of the better American lagers.
