Perm (134), Tryon, North Carolina, USA Apr 12, 2008 This is the best American Pilsner I’ve ever had, bar none. I used to reserve Trumer for that designation, but Brooklyn has usurped the throne. Hoppy, refreshing, with a smooth finish all the way down. Perfect on a cool spring evening with a homemade veggie pizza!
thornecb (1033), Marblehead, Massachusetts, USA Aug 17, 2008 Pours gold with a bright white head into a pilsner. Uneven head recedes to nothing. Malt and cookie aromas. Crisp, metallic and sour. thenick (538), North Bellmore, New York, USA Aug 17, 2008 Pours golden with a fluffy white head. Aroma is largely grain and hops with slight spice notes thrown in. Taste is run of the mill pilsner with a nice spice characteristic buried in there. It’s a solid offering, but nothing really stands out. durhambeer (378), Durham, North Carolina, USA Aug 16, 2008 Bottle. Not bad at all. Golden pour, decent head. Crisp, but not as Saazy as many pilsners... guess b/c they used Perle and Hallertauer. A bit more floral/spicy than some. Refreshing on the summer day in which I drank it. Drnk_McDermott (1537), Downers Grove, Illinois, USA Aug 13, 2008 12 oz. bottle. Decent pils color, big pouffy head. Malt smell is pretty light, to let some of the noble hops in. Date notch is "Best before 08/08," so not in full flower of freshness, but a fine taste of German hops with spice and pepper. Crispy malt flavor. A fine, solid beer and good example of a pils. fakepurseninja (469), Sammamish, Washington, USA Aug 6, 2008 Somewhat of a stale cracker malt - light hops, somewhat of a lemon-grass note, a little bit of honey sweetness. Medium bodied drink
