Canned. Pale straw colored with a white frothy head. Seems fairly yeasty. Not bad, not good.

Draft - There is nothing better in my view, but I am partial to German pilsners. My favorite during my last trip to Germany. Cannot get here in SW PA, but if your ever in S FLA, Old Heidelberg has it on draft in Ft. Lauderdale

Bottle- by the smell of bananas, too much light or age. Great golden color, nicely carbonated, but I couldn't get past the poor flavor to get to the mouthfeel. Drain pour. Rating probably skewed by skunkiness, but there it is.

Nice golden appearance with a much drier flavour than most pils.Hops dominate what all round is a pleasant and distinctive pils.

Bottled. Golden. Perfumy hoparoma. Slight flowery flavour with a harsh bitter mouthfeel. Band-aid and estery.

Yellow/golden pilsner. Aroma and flavor from hops, but nothing special. Rather boring and with a quite flat finish.

Bottled. Golden, frothy head. Pungent and chemical aroma; dry and papery. Rather flat and malty.

Pale coloured, moderate carbonation, very thin head but with an almost soapy lacing. Doughy, hops aroma. Bitterness consistant through finish. A very nice German pils. (500 ml can)
