Left Hand Polestar Pilsner

Brewed by Left Hand Brewing Co.
Style: Pilsener
Longmont, Colorado USA

Bottle pour with a thin head, slight lacing, and fizzy carbonation. Very light, clear, golden color. Flavors are lacking in the ability to grab my attention.....there is a slight bitter hops tickle, but no other prominent flavors, other than a faint, mild malt finish. Finishes crisp and clean. Seems to be very drinkable on a hot summer day with friends.

Clear light yellow beer with a thing white head that stays around and leaves nice lacing. Slightly citrus aroma. Spices and hops coat a basic pilsner beer with citrus poking through here and there. More complex than most of this style and quite enjoyable.

Very light golden color, clear, with good foamy head with dallops. Nose reminds me of bathroom toiletries, toothpaste and/or mouthwash. No, I didn’t taste this after brushing my teeth. There’s just a strange, sterile/cleaning substance smell to it, and it’s the beer, not me, not the glass. Very faint Saaz on the palate. Just a weak pils, imo. Reminds me of many domestic macro producers that try to make a micro product - very watered down and boring.

Bottle. Pours a very clear golden, a little head that quickly disipates into a very thin film. Taste is definitely pretty dry and thin. Uneventful.

BOTTLE: clear yellow pour, nose is very mild - maybe some malt. Nothing interesting in the taste, but there is some hop bitterness. Pretty much like a mildly hopped, mildly malted Miller Lite. Really can’t get behind this one.

on tap at the brewery-tap room., pours hazy golden with white head. nose of spicy hops. flavor is grainy with a healthy dose of spicy hops resembling sazz hops. pretty clean and refreshing.

Not my favorite style so take my evaluation with a grain of salt. Too thin for my liking.
