500 ml can into pint glass, canned on 4/23/2018. Pours slightly hazy pale golden yellow color with a 1-2 finger fairly dense and fluffy white head with good retention, that reduces to a thin cap that lingers. Light spotty lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of big lightly tart lemon/orange juice, lime, citrus zest, wheat, cracker, white bread/sugar, and light herbal/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance of lemonade, pale malt, and light earthy hop notes; with great strength. Taste of big lightly tart lemon/orange juice, lime, citrus zest, cracker, white bread/sugar, and light herbal/grassy earthiness. Mild herbal/grassy/spicy bitterness and lemon tang/tartness on the finish. Lingering notes of lightly tart lemon/orange juice, lime, citrus zest, wheat, cracker, white bread/sugar, and light herbal/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Great robustness and balance of lemonade, pale malt, and light earthy hop flavors; with a great malt/bitterness and fruit tartness balance; with no puckering/astringent flavors after the finish. Moderately crisp/clean finishing. Light-moderate increasing dryness from lingering bitterness, tart/tangy citrus, and carbonation. Medium-high carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth, fairly bready/grainy, and lightly sticky/tangy/acidic balanced mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 3%. Overall this is an excellent radler! All around great robustness and balance of lemonade, pale malt, and light earthy hop flavors; very smooth, crisp, clean, and refreshing to drink. Very flavorful and not watery for the ABV. Extremely vibrant lemonade flavors, with great pilsner malt presence/balance, and mild earthy hops. A very enjoyable offering and spot on style example. One of the better ones I have had in the style.
