Tap at BeerGeek. Thin body, rather low carbo. Medium bitterness, low sweetness, quite dry, even surprisingly so, it being an amber. All around a bit flavourless though, which is more of a problem for me though. A bit oxidated, a bit toasted, and really not much more. Hints of vague fruitiness. Not offensive in any big way, just kinda overall meh.

Pours clear golden with an average sized, quite frothy white head. Good enough retention, close to no lacing. Quite good per style intensity in the aroma: cerealy malts with hints of hay, moderate grassy hops notes with a hint of apple-like fruitiness. Overall a simple, straightforward aroma, but feels nicely fresh and as mentioned decently intense. Taste shows a more pronounced malty side than the smell suggested: sllightly fragrant/crackery malts with cerealy hints and a touch of hay, a background of grassy hops, minimal fruitish hints (apple). It's a clean and well defined taste profile, malty but not too sweet (overall: low to medium sweetness, low bitterness), maybe slightly less delicate than usual for the style but, as for the aroma, pleasantly refreshing. Light body, low to medium carbonation; typical german lager smoothness and drinkability. Nice one.

Rerate, tap at HopDog. Clear chestnut. Nose is at the same time cleaner, crisper and more edgy. Full body, chewy. Nice balance. Not boozy. Sweet but not too sweet. Good drinkability. Nice.
March 08 24. Tap at HopDog. Clear chestnut. Green tea, herbal, earthy metallic lactose. Sparkly, edgy, crisp. Full body, chewy. Nice hoppy sweet and edgy sticky, slightly boozy aftertaste.

Bottle at home from De Laat. Clean golden pour with a white head. Sweet grains, some bread, cleanish enough. Same goes for the taste, straightforward and simple but at least clean.

Bottle at home. Aroma is crisp grassy hops, hay, grainy malt, light citrus, a tad floral. Flavour is light to moderate bitter. Body is light to medium. Exquisite Pilsener, nicely grassy hoppy and crisp, I wish this was the standard for the style.
