On tap at Local Option. Pours a clear gold with a slight orange hue with a white head that dissipates completely. Aroma has a decent amount of citrus with sweet grains and a bit of earthiness. Flavor has grain and bread throughout with a hint of bitter citrus in the finish.

Pours clear gold with a strong 1 finger head. Aroma is orange peel, berries, some bready barley notes. Taste is very orangey and berry-ful with notes of vanilla, cherry, and honey. Body is thin with active carbonation and long acidic orange peel/berry finish. My bartender told me this was a lager and it seems way more like an ale. A bit wierd overall; definetly gave me heartburn. Would not drink again.

UPDATED: FEB 18, 2012 Aroma of citrus, hay, cereal and noble hops. Appearance was tinted gold with white head. Flavor matched the nose, but with a little toast in the finish; a flavorful and interesting Pils. Palate was bubbly and slightly chewy. Good stuff.
