16.9 oz. can from the Costco 2025 German Biergarten Collection. Pours a clear gold color with a large white head and great retention. Good, scattered lacing. Standard pale malt aroma. Straightforward pale lager flavor. Slightly sweet. Tastes more like a heavier Helles lager versus a Festbier, IMHO. It's good either way. Nothing special, yet very repeatable. Medium body and medium carbonation. Very low bitterness. Prost!

16.9 oz. can from the Costco 2025 German Biergarten Collection. Pours a hazy gold color with an eggshell colored head and great retention. Very good lacing too. Smells like a pilsner beer. Tastes like a blend of pale malts and pilsner malts with a touch of honey and grain. Smooth, clean, and a slightly sweet finish. Medium body. Medium-light carbonation. Low bitterness. A good beer.

Costco box: pours slightly misty gold with white head. Aroma is grassy with some grainy notes, little herbal perhaps. Taste has a nice bitter finish with pleasant aftertaste. Light sweetness. Not bad.
