Draught at the brewpub
Blond color; creamy head. It has an interesting hoppy aroma, almost manure. Some malt flavor, a touch of hay, dry mouthfeel, also because of the extreme bitterness, with a good grassy hopping. The final is long, maybe just a bit harsh. Not stylish, but appreciated.

(Draught) Sampled on February 8, 2008, at the brewpub. Long lasting, white head with a gold mildly carbonated body. Nose is crisp, corn and wheat. Flavour is nicely balanced with a very pleasant European malt and saaz hops.

[816-20071105] Tap @ Wildwood (Calgary, AB). Mild sweaty yeast aroma has something edgier lurking in the background. Clear, yellow body with a medium-lasting creamy white head. Grassy yeast hops flavour has a leafy aftertaste. Light-medium body. Interesting twist to a pilsener, would also do well with a citrus complement.

Quite a bit of cabbage in the nose (though not nearly as much as in the Golden Ale) but also some notable graininess and a hint of grassy, lightly spicy hop character. Brilliantly clear golden body is topped by a decent, fine bubbled, white head that recedes to a lasting cover and laces very nicely. Moderate bitterness and clean malt flavour just about conceal the light cabbage flavour. Crisp, fine bubbled effervescence that awakens the tongue. Refreshing, medium-light body. Comes across to me as a pils in the German vein and quite a decent one at that. Sampled on tap at the restaurant.

Draft at the brewpub. Crisp pale yellow body with a small creamy white head, and nice lacing. (3+) Floral noble hops, grassy straw notes. Light lemon note in the flavour, similar hops to the aroma with floral grassy bitterness. Average palate. A pretty solid pilsener!
