Draught at the brewpub. Clear golden, small head. Grassy nose. Dryish crisp and clean. Grassy hops are a bit subdued to fully lift the beer and the malt may be on the clean side. Still the ligt grainy crispness makes it perfectly refreshing.

Golden with a white head. Fruity aroma with banana, yeast, some spice, and sweet caramel malts. Picked up some coriander among the spices along with a little too much banana, refreshing fruits, light malts, and yeast. Full, smooth mouth. Really enjoyed this one, though the banana was a little strong for me.

Clear brown with a pillowy, beige head. Sweet caramel malt, toasted, bread, and light yeast spices. Flavor starts off rather spicy with the caramel malt showing through as well. Light toasted malts are there as well. A decent dunkel.

Clear golden with a full white head. Nice grass, earth, sweet malt aroma. For a pils it has a rather full body. Crisp grass hops, light sweet malts, and noticeable earth tones. Finish has light bitterness. A solid pilsener. Could use a little more hops, though.
