Cold on tap: Pours a clear dark golden color with minor ivory bubbles around the edges. Light malts, grass, light fruits and honey. Light bodied, smooth and effervescent. Ending is malty and fruity.

sampled at the brewpub. Straw colored. Aroma is light grains and a touch of honey and spicy hops. Taste is the same with some fruity notes, mild finish. light bodied, not too bad for a lighter beer.

Didn’t come across as a Pilsner, much too little hop presence, more like a malty kolsch, hops very mild to light, honey and some light fruity ester components in both the aroma and flavor. The mouthfeel was moderately carbonated.

Taste is mildly hopped which is quite refreshing. Taste is sweet wheat with some mellow orange highlights. Very nice, light hoppy finish. Very freakin good.
