On tap at the brewery. Dark gold with a touch of orange. Fine head, turning to lace. Malty, slightly buttery aroma. Rich malt flavor, with butter, hops, fruit -- maybe plums? And some metal or flint. Dry and fruity. Dry finish with okay hops. Not bad. The aftertaste is a bit too strange, but the aroma and flavor are quite good.

My Bottom Line:
Muddled herbal hops and a chewy body cannot save this dust-laden Pilsener attempt. These guys can’t be serious about beer.

Further Personal Perceptions:
-A sheet of foam covers the deep golden clarity.
-This dusty doughy yeastiness was also found in their seasonal Helles.
-It looks fine, feels fine, but that awful yeast...
