First time I've seen it in town. Retired? I doubt my cans are old; there's coding on the bottom of the cans but they're illegible to me.
Pours a lightly hazed straw yellow with a respectable head of foam, some lacing.
Smells of noble hops that, truly, come across as pungent. Some notes of bread or biscuit or both don't exactly shine but they're there. Is that pungency pine? Could be. Little bit artificial to my nose.
Noble hop taste, bread, sort of a piney flavour. Little bit of dankness going on. Not exactly a Pilsner that I am going to shout out and recommend but it is okay/drinkable.
Mouthfeel seems slick and enjoyable.
Middle of the road Pilsner in my book.

Pours a clear straw from a can. Light hay and bread dough aroma. Flavor is just sweetened grain, one-dimensional but no off notes. Okay beer.

Part of their sampler pack.
It pours a lightly hazed straw gold with minimal foam and lacing.
It smells yeasty, has coriander, bananas, cloves.
Taste matches the smell with an addition of orange zest. Very lively flavours.
Medium bodied with lower level of carbonation.
Quite the tasty Wit.

12 oz bottle from Tavour. Deep mahogany pour witb one finger foamy beige head. Malty aroma, some boizy notes. Taste gets sweet fast, malts, fruitcake, raisins. Alcohol heat is there from the get-go and stays through to the finish. Mildly swet and lots of heat.
