The Aromas are hops and pale malt. Flavors are similar to nose with Citrus standing out. It doesn't seem much like a Keller Pils more like hoppy pale lager or hoppy pils. I really expected that they do a better job with this. Happy is popular but if you're going to make a traditional beer then make it traditionally.

Nice-looking package, too bad what's inside isn't as good. The Aromas are oxidized hops, cardboard and a little caramel malt. Flavors are like nose, Bittersweet with some rye spice and growing bitterness towards the Finish. Okay body and carbonation. Not much of an IPA.
