Appearance: Pours a clear, dull yellow gold, with an impressive 1/4 inch dense white head.
Aroma: Dry bready and biscuity malt.
Taste: Moderately bitter crisp hopping and dry buiscuity malt. Finshes really clean.
Mouthfeel: Crisp and refreshing.
Overall: An amazing pilsener, with no corny twang, perfect sturdy bitterness, and would make a great picnic/session beer. Godbless Full Sail for maintaining respect in the Lager community. arrogantb (712), Denver, Colorado, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 14, 2009 The label says this is a pilsener and it sure fits the style. Dark yellow but not orange. fizzy, short head. Smells like malt and honey. The flavor is a crisp lager, very easy to drink, good stuff. I also like the fact that Full Sail has very reasonable pricing, this was $7 for a sixer.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 8, 2009 Sampled on 12/8/2009. This pilsner pours a medium yellow gold color from a 12oz bottle. Small to medium sized white foamy head. The aroma is cereal malts and spicy hops, slightly sweet. A medium bodied pilsner. The malts are cereal and bready. The hops are spicy and floral. Nice balance. Good carbonation. A nice crisp and clean pilsner. A great balance between the malts and the hops. Wish more pilsners tasted like this one. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and crisp. Aftertaste is slightly bitter. Reid (1092), Salem, Oregon, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 29, 2009 Clear,lovelly golden in colour. Large pure white head. Lashings of lace.
Great spicy/grassy hop aromas waft up.Some malts show.
Very malt centered beginning to the taste, then washed away by very livelly refreshing hops. Gives a kind of balance to the thing.
Thicker than usual mouthfeel for the style.
Great summer drinker.
I am not sure this could be called a "Classic German Pils"..but it is certainlly a great PNW one! ChainGangGuy (2593), Kennesaw, Georgia, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Aug 30, 2009 12 ounce bottle - $1.99 at Total Wine & More in Atlanta, Georgia.
Appearance: Pours a brilliantly clear, yellow-orange body with a modest amount of bubbly white suds on top.
Smell: Light pilsener malt character with a bit of fresh grain and a near-imperceptible honey undertone. Hops drop off a few coarsely shredded leaves and a fruity note of lemons.
Taste: Starts with light pale and pilsener malts with delicate touches (only touches, mind you) of thinly buttered bread and sweet honey. The Saaz-alternative Sterling hops used provide a leafy character as well as a hint of lemon citrus. Fairly restrained bitterness. Finishes dry and smooth.
Mouthfeel: Medium-light body. Medium carbonation. Smooth mouthfeel.
Drinkability: A nice, thirst-quenching American-born pilsner that delivered some late-August refreshment just in the nick of time. Where to next, Limited Ed. Lager Series? riversideAK (2769), Shoreline, Washington, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jul 17, 2009 Nice aroma of malt, bread, a touch of honey with a good hop presence as well. Pours light golden with a fantastic fizzy head. The flavor is bready and sweet, followed by some grassy peppery hops and a good solid clean bitterness in the finish. Nice carbonation, and wonderful finish.
