(On tap) Courtesy of yalnikim. Clear, golden with a small, white, lacing head. Good, malty aroma with a whiff of flowers. Medium body with lightly sweet malt and flower notes and a fairly hoppy finish. 310108

Straw colour. Low carbonation. Short but rocky head. Lightly vinous nose with a herbal accent. Light bitterness with seabreezey notes. Interesting brew, but could do with a bit more substance.

Draught at Macs Brewbar, Wellington, New Zealand. Golden beer with a malty and hopped aroma, and a hopped and bitter flavour. Overall a nice gently hopped pilsner.

Clear, bright gold body with a touch of bronze and a decent white head. Nelson Sauvin hops seems to be all the rage at the moment and you can pick this up on the aroma and then a bit in the taste. Fairly light in body, at first taste it was quite good but then just a bit grainy.

Draught, a clear gold with a white frothy head. A fruity hop aroma. A good level of hopping, allowing the fruit flavours to come though and not becoming too dry.
