Bottle. Pours a slightly cloudy honey gold with 3/4” white head. Smells like caramel apples, flat out. Green Granny Smith apples. Flavor of pear juice, and...man, not much else. Little bit of malt, hint of corn. After taste like green red apple skin and just a touch of hop bitterness. Body is on the thin side, but appropriate for the light flavor of the beer. Is this even beer? This flat out the most drinkable lager I’ve ever had. I’m impressed.

One of the best lagers I have had the pleasure to drink. My brother in law bought it for me in the bottle and it set in my refrig for a while before drinking it. The flavor is subtle but long lasting and almost nutty in resonance. The appearance is a dark golden hue.

Slightly hazy in look, average head. Mild aroma but pleasant lightly roasted, sweet. Taste was actually surprising to me well hopped with great balancing of all the ingredients. Impressive. Prima. Quiet intensive in taste. It was fun to drink. Solid brew. Had its strengths few weaknesses.

Saw this on sale for $3.99 , comes in quite substantial green bottles ,with the "Old Stork" himself on a blue label. Actually the beer has a very deep,warm, welcoming golden colour, with a large bubble pure white head. Nice Saaz hoppy aroma, smells nice and fresh despite the green bottle. Very nice tasting pils, sort of on the "thick" side for the regular pils.Nice malty introduction to the mouthful,then a very pleasant Saaz hoppiness takes over, leaving honeyish tints on the back of the tongue. Quite a substantial beer on the palate,for the style, good aftertaste. A very drinkable beer, I liked this a lot. A nice after work beer for watching TV!

Gold. Insignificant, off-white head. Malt, some sweetness, and some kind of roasted spice in the aroma-intriguing for a lager. Same flavor. Light/medium body, easy drinking. One of the better lagers I’ve had, 3.1 seems low.

Pours cloudy amber with very little head that dissapates quickly. Leaves little to no lacing. Sweet malty aroma and a slightly hoppy finish. The longer I drink it the more I like it.

Thanks to Degarth for this one! The Stork pours with a dark yellow body that holds up a long lasting, creamy, bone-colored head. Rich bready, doughy malt aroma that is supported by a flowery hops. Slight sweetness that is balanced by a good hop bitterness underneath. A bit soapy, but there is lots of body for the style here that make this quite enjoyable.

Deep golden colour. On the sweet and lightly hopped side for a pilsener. The malt flavour profile reminded me a bit of Pilsener Urquell.. Decent.
