Nov 23, 2009 Clear golden pour with light soapy looking head. Aroma of strong noble hops and doughy pils malt. A bit of a grainy flavor with strong noble hops. No detectable skunk or pee. Bubbly, sparkling mouthfeel. Its a pretty ok pilsner when you’re in the mood for that sort of thing.

Nov 22, 2009 bottle BB 01jan2010 consumed 8/17/2009...
handsome crystal clear straw yellow colored pour with some golden hues and a big soft white cap. some drippy spots of lacing stick around after the head fades.
smells a lot like seltzer water?... followed by aromas of pale pils graininess, light spice, yeast, floral hops and some sort of unnamed fruitiness.
the flavor is pretty much the same... along with some mild pale malty sweetness and a mildly bittered dry finish. no frills.
the body is medium while crisp, lightly bitter and tremendously sessionable. 6/3/6/4/14/3.3

Nov 4, 2009 Bottle - Light amber pour with a big, bubbly white head. Smells clean and sweet, wtih pils malt and flowery hops. Taste is more of those floral, perfumey noble hops on the finish, with a smooth grain flavor throughout. Real clean and balanced, with an understated sweetness.

Oct 30, 2009 Kind of, um, bland? is that fair? Some bready, malty notes, but lacking any bite. Just no interesting at all. Of course, I could be mad that they took Hoptober off to put this on...

Oct 29, 2009 Bottle. Not a big fan of this style but for a pilsener, not bad. Clean, golden color, what you would expect from a pilsener. The aroma is like most traditional, american pilseners. Had a nice bitter flavor that would have been better on a hot summer day. Recommened at least once.

Oct 29, 2009 Bottle at McClaren’s. Pours a light golden color with a fair head. The aroma is semi hoppy, certainly good enough to fit the pilsner description. It’s light, only slightly vegetal and crisp. The palate is again light and crisp. A little bit of malt character is here which reminds me of Fat Tire, but this is most certainly a lager. The esters give it away. Flavors of cereal, wood, and biscuits are here. Really, this isn’t a bad yellow lager, but I am puzzled as to why we just got this in the winter time.

Oct 6, 2009 Bottle. Pours a two finger, foamy white head. Clear, golden body. Nice, spicy noble hop aroma with underlying, summery pils malt. Flavor is of crisp, clean pils malt and more spicy, herbal noble hops. Some mild floral notes. Very basic flavors, but quite good. Light-medium, clean body with lively carbonation and a moderately bitter finish. Overall a straight up, no nonsense Pilsener. Tasty, refreshing and repeatable.
