Poured from a 16 oz can dated June 15, 2020. Aroma is hop forward with a nice herbal, grassy hop note that has faint floral and spicy touches. Light grain notes. Faint floral esters. Pours a slightly hazy, gold color with a medium large, thick, pillowy white head that exhibits nice retention as it slowly recedes to a small film that lingers. Moderate lacing and no legs. Flavor is slightly sweet with a fairly dry, crisp finish. Medium notes of grain and a touch of bread. Moderately strong bitterness with moderately strong hop notes herbs, grass and lighter notes of spice that lingers into the finish. Mouthfeel is light bodied and crisp with moderate carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a nice, very hop forward Pils with a very traditional character. Very crisp with a lingering bitterness.

16 ounce can. Pours a clear yellow hue with a medium white head. A light sweet nose. Toast, malt dominant at times, but the core really is a sweet melon, citrus base. Very light, but very nice.

Clear yellow body with white head. Grassy aroma. Taste has some lemon and a finish like a bitter not a pilsner. Not bad.

Poured from a 16 oz can dated June 04, 2020. Aroma is hop forward with moderate gooseberry, white wine, tropical fruit and citrus notes. Light dank, grassy note with light cracker malt notes. Light alcohol spice. Pours a slightly hazy, yellow gold with a medium large, medium thick, frothy white head that recedes steadily to a small film that lingers a bit on the edges. Faint lacing and legs. Flavor is slightly sweet with light cracker malt notes. Medium bitterness and light alcohol spice. Moderate hop notes of gooseberry, white wine, tropical fruit and citrus. Lighter grassy, resin notes. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a nice beer with a solid hop character. I definitely prefer Nelson hops, but Comet mellows it in a way that isn't terrible and adds a touch of complexity.

Fairly high amount of lacing and faint legs. Flavor is slightly sweet with medium light cracker malt notes. Medium bitterness and light alcohol notes.

The cashmere and citra combine to make this a citrus bomb.

Poured from a 16 oz can dated May 5, 2020. Aroma is malt forward with grain and hints of bread, biscuit and crackers. Medium light woody, herbal hop notes with faint floral esters. Pours a very clear, brilliant gold with a large, moderately thick, frothy, white head that recedes somewhat quickly to a small film that lingers in small clumps on the edges. Light lacing and no legs. Flavor is slightly sweet and moderately dry with moderate grain notes and hints of bread. Moderate bitterness and a faint alcohol note. Light woody, herbal hop notes and faint floral esters. Mouthfeel is light bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a decent lager. I was expecting it to be a bit sweeter based on the aroma, but it has a fairly dry, clean, crisp finish. Pretty crushable.
