Feb. 2007 - Beer poured pale/golden yellow with very little head or lacing. Aroma was extreme grass and flowers. The flavor was sweet pilsner malts with a lot of floral grassy undertones with mild bitterness and a weird soapy flavor which dissipated as it warmed. The hops reminded me of the spices in doritos...and I’m not sure that is a wonderful thing, although it got significantly better as it warmed.

Bottle. Nice golden pour w/ quickly dissapating head. Mild citrus taste, clean and crisp. Enjoyed.

This is one of the better beers Abita has crafted in years, I would go as far as to say one of their best ever. Clean herbal nose, with some fresh cut grass hoppiness. Crisp and well balanced, with superb drinkability.

Pours a hazy gold with modest one finger head that dissipates quickly. Nice hop aroma, well balanced, inviting. Taste is very well balanced, possibly the best Czech Pilsener I’ve tried. Wish more of this were available. Took a while just to obtain this one sample. Light, clean mouthfeel; not heavily carbonated. Great drinkability, could easily consume mass quantities if I could find it.

This is part of a beer club. Had only one bottle but was decent for the price. Poured great and had a nice finish. Would do again.

Bottle from a small liquor store near North East, MD. Clear bright yellow pour under an initially tall but quickly dissipating rocky white head. Hoppy aroma with wisps of hay and fresh cut grass. Mild citris flavor underlying a crisp, hoppy straightforward pilsner profile. Very carbonated texture and a crisp finish. The best domestic pilsner I’ve tried in a long time.

light yellow, not much head, to fizzy for me. Less carbonation would have improved this. Otherwise a good pilsner. But when I open the Abita party packs I am disappointed to see this one.

Pale yellow with small white head. Lively carbonation. Floral aroma with light lemon notes. Nice light sweetness with faint bitterness in the finish. Very drinkable and refreshing.
