Nov 20, 2008 On tap at Salone del Gusto 2008. Hazy golden, big head. Pure grassy hop aroma with good grassy bitterness. Great craftmanship.

May 17, 2008 the best of the options at pils pride. like all the beers it had a well made head. aroma and flavor of grass but with a touch of hop sharpness. although it is lighter than tipo in color and booz it realy shines in flavor. the hop is king.

Apr 2, 2008 chiara buona schiuma persistente il profumoi non è intenso ma in bocca le note dolci del malto tipo miele d’acacia si bilanciano da una generosa luppolatura piuttosto persistente

Dec 25, 2007 Yet another fantastic pilsener offering from B.I. Great floral, not too hoppy despite the name, nose and crisp cleansing -- basically a slightly lighter, perhaps summerier, version of the world-class Tipopils.

Dec 13, 2007 On draught at the brewpub.
Light cloudy, yellow colour with big, creamy, steady head, topped with a hopcone. Looks yummy indeed. Great modern style pils aroma with wood, cedar and flowers from Hallertauer Mittelfrûh I belive. Dry, crips mouthfeel with flowers and citrus. Good hoppy, almost salty finish. Hops speak here, not the malts. Great beer!

Dec 2, 2007 Draught @ Brewery tap, Birrificio Italiano, Lurago Marinone (CO), Italy. Wow what a pilsner .... Light unclear medium yellow color with a average, frothy, excellent lacing, fully lasting, white to off-white head. Aroma is moderate malty, toasted, caramel, heavy hoppy, grass, citrus. Flavor is moderate sweet and moderate to heavy bitter with a long long duration, and a very nice dry finish. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. THIS IS THE BEST TASTING PILSNER I HAVE TASTED - Well made Agostino. ;o)) (081107)

Apr 4, 2007 Updated: Nov 25, 2007A brilliant gold under a perfect, creamy bright white head, with a Tettnanger whole cone on it. Nose is plenty of grassy, citric and even spicy notes. In the first two glasses i had malty inviting notes were clearly felt. After the third hoppiness starts to be a bit overwhelming, but certainly not boring. The bitter and quite aggressive hoppiness found the perfect marriage in mouth, with honey and bake malt’ contributions. A long and dry finish. I could clearly perceive hop taste in my mouth for about two hours after i’d left LurAgo. A great Pils indeed. -------------
I’ve drank 2007 version. Another great beer from Lurago. Should be better only if served in 1liter mug!!!

Nov 20, 2006 Draught Beautifully presented with huge white head, like whipped cream and a hopcone on top of it, over golden beer. The hopbell has to go - it prevents the extremely malty/toasted nose to be perceived. Strangely, I get a nose of Croque Monsieur ... Very malty (!yes!!) beer, very dry malt, and strangely enough, one gets the dryness of dry-hopping without the taste. Crisp finish, with honey, in the good sense of the word ’crisp’. Retronasal finally more hop flavours. Light to medium bodied, long fading flavours. Calling this a "surprise" is not doing this right. I’m sorry about the Croque, but it’s spot-on. I cannot for the love of God understand why the Tipopils, its base is really hoppy and refreshing, is finally better than this maltbomb, posing as hoppy...
