Canned 7/16/26, drunk 9/9/26.
Rich blueberry and spice with lemongrass and tea. Solid backing of clean, polished, honey-rich malt. Not getting the Krush, which is fine with me, because I don't think Krush is very good (a lot of bitterness, poignant acidity, very little soft or complex flavor). Apple, berry pie and light floral notes lingering. Very easygoing and brightly aromatic.
Very soft and malty initially with a touch of biscuit/cracker and light acidity on the finish. Lemongrass, pine, grapefruit and rich blueberry all easily backed by rich, honey-like malt. The malt is pretty rich and soft/round here. As Oakes notes, this feels more IPA than Pils; just not enough dryness/crispness on the end. That said, it's not too sweet, just not crisp enough for the style.
