It pours a bright golden color under a foamy head. The smell has some lightly toasted malts, and just a note of noble hop. If you grew up on the basic yellow lager that was an American standard, this has all the good parts of that in its nose. The taste comes in with more of that slightly toasty malt. It may be light, but it’s definitely there, sometimes more than I can say for the usual bland beer. A lot of Pilsner have a salty note, probably from the soft water profile of the originating Plzen home base. But this does not have that. It seems to rest a bit toward the Dortmunder “Special Export” kind of lager. But there’s just a note of spice in the hop and slight floral note that says they have more right to call it a Pilsener than a Miller Lite does. Towards the very end, I picked up a slightly floral aftertaste that reminded me of the one time I had a fresh Budvar off the tap, and on the same continent as its source. Yes, I’ll call it crisp, and there is a bit of a hoppy after taste that I’m, sure the average good beer fans won’t mind at all.

Dry graham and sweet milk chocolate brownies with clear marshmallow cream notes. Smooth and rich, a decedent dessert stout. Lingering milk chocolate, cocoa powder and marshmallow cream. Nailed the recipe.

Crowler from the source shared at Lucky Bamboo share. Thanks Alex. Pours a thick, pulpy gold with a small bit of foam that dissipates quickly. Very strong guava and passion fruit nose with deep peach notes and nectar present as well. Thick and viscous on the palate with more guava and blood orange really coming through. The lactose adds nice a nice creamy texture. Like a yogurt drink with only a hint of fruit skin astringency. Really well done and a nice intro to a new brewery for me.
