Draught @ Milk & Hops - Chelsea. Hazy bright yellow with creamy white head, bread aroma, medium carbonation, mildly bitter yeasty taste, thin body, abrupt finish. Not as clean and crisp as you'd expect from a Pilsner.

Can shared in London - thanks to Mr. Tips. Pours clear gold with a frothy, white head. The nose holds piney hops, semi-ripe citrus fruits, some pale bread. Medium sweet flavour with more bready malts, lightly toasted grains, orange rind. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Rindy finish, lightly warming, with nips of spicy pine. Pretty decent.

Draught. Clear reddish brown with very small frothy off-white head, sharp mint aroma, medium carbonation, medium sour roasted malt taste with strong mint flavor, smooth body, long minty finish. A very interesting brew indeed, almost like a mint julep.

Draught at Brewer’s Tap and Table, 7/1/17 and Worden Hall, 8/19/17.
Heavily hazy, though not soupy, pale, straw-blonde with golden tints and a full, well-retained, white head.
The more mild side of mosaic is noted in the nose, thankfully (since it’s such a light beer), showing nectarine skin, apricots and light meyer lemon. Biscuity malts lie behind it, and perhaps a touch of vanilla-like sugar character from the lactose. It’s mostly soft, fuzzy, green hops, though and it’s both clean and shows no resin, alcohol or yeast.
Soft and fruity, with mostly stone fruit and mild citrus. Biscuity malts, lactose and a tight carbonation provide a supple texture while hops show light bitterness and juicy fruits growing stronger as the beer warms and breathes. The lactose provides a bit of gentle acidity and orange creamsicle flavor, but does give it a somewhat "thick" character that is definitely questionably-desirable in a light, hoppy pale ale. That being said, the amount of clean, well-presented flavors, bright hoppiness and lack of resin, all at ~3% abv is undeniably great brewing and I’m happy to drink this beer whenever I see it.
