Small Batch Beer Fest at the brewery. Aroma is quite strong with hops (as you’d expect) while still providing a nice flavor of pine and citrus.

On tap at the brewery. Poured a clear golden-copper color with a moderate white head that left good lacing. Aroma of fresh, leafy, piny hops with some citrus undertones. Flavor begins with some light sweet malts but quickly moves into a hoppy, resiny pine hit with sweet undertones of grapefruit and citrus, with a moderately bitter finish. Pretty nice beer, the only thing that was a bummer is the low carbonation, it almost seemed like it was on Nitro. Some carbonation to add bite would make it a much more pleasurable experience.

Bottle. .. Classic Noble hop aroma, hints of malt. Smells like a pilsner should, maybe turned up a notch? . .. Crystal clear, pale gold, light white head. .. Sweet start with a hoppy bitterness to finish. Sweet in the finish too. .. Med body with a sticky aftertaste. .. Very tasty Pilsner. Hard to imagine it’s a "double".. .

Draught at Falling Rock. The beer is clear, medium caramel brown with a midsized, beige, creamy, lasting head.

Smells like a malty Christmas tree. The aroma is malty with light notes of toasted grain, biscuit, caramel; Hoppy with moderate/heavy notes of grapefruit oil, pine/resin, moderate notes of tea, dried apricot; Yeasty with a moderate note of basement, light note of dish rag.

The flavor is moderate/heavily sweet, moderately bitter, light/heavily acidic with a long, moderately bitter, light/moderately sweet finish.

The body is medium, the texture is watery/creamy and the carbonation is lively.

Draught, Falling Rock. Head is fully lasting. Body is dark yellow. Aroma lightly to moderately malty (toasted grain, cookie), moderately to heavily hoppy (grapefruit, apricot, resin), lightly yeasty (dough). Flavor is moderately to heavily sweet, lightly acidic, lightly to moderately bitter. Finish is lightly to moderately sweet, lightly to moderately acidic, moderately to heavily bitter. Medium to full body, velvety/creamy texture, lively carbonation, lightly to moderately alcoholic. Good stuff; very nice mouthfeel and nice balance for the style. It’s big, but it’s not out of hand.
