Pours gold into a shaker. Fluffy bright white head with good retention consolidates before receding. Caramel and mild pine aromas. Crisp with fruity caramel upfront turning to a lasting, almost painful, tingling bitter metallic finish.

Pours a crisp, light to medium gold witha tall rocky, slightly off white head, good retention specks of lacing. Aroma is slightly fruity, with a weak grassy hops, stale saltine crackers, and a wisp of salad greens. Flavor is sweet straw, grassy hops, soapy prairie flower hops, and thistle flower sweetness. Some biscuit and dry bread as well. Finish is biscuit and grass with low bitterness. Body is thin and dry, almost like thick mineral water. Not bad for a session, but a little expensive for that and not all that interesting.

On draft at Ravenous Pig, Orlando. Golden golor, clear and smells slightly skunky. Slight maltiness and a good amount of hops. The slight skunk in the bouquet does not transfer into the taste. This is clean and crisp. I am not a huge fan of pilseners, but this is solid.

On-tap at Najas. Pours hazy straw yellow with a moderate white head, spider web lace. Smells subdued sweet malty, slightly fruity. Tastes sweet and syrupy malty with some fruit. Smells a little grainy with some hay as well. Medium, slightly syrupy body, ok carbonation.
