Commercial Description:
This “Nobel-Pilsner” is the creation of our brewmaster. He brought special yeast from Bavaria, combined it with Wisconsin barley and the finest Bavarian and American hops. Then employing traditional brewing methods, this Pilsner is finished with a long cold rest in our cellars. Expect this bier to be creamy and full-bodied with a smooth finish.

Medium dark golden color,small head that lasted for a short time.Malty sweet,citrus aroma with a faint hint of hops.The flavor is malty and sweet with a slight caramel side and decent amount of hops to round out the flavor.It is quite a sweet brew,and i would have to agree with Britt that it does seem to lose something in the middle it just seems to go flat,but for an after taste it is sweet and malty with a mild hop presence.Not a bad brew at all pretty decent and very easy to drink in large quantities.Thanks to Wawood for sending me this fine Pils.

More like an Octoberfest than a Pils. Very malty and somewhat watery at first. Not especially full-bodied but not as light as I expected. I would drink this again.

GABF 2003: Clear yellow color with a small head. No aroma, I mean none. I'm sure why a beer with no aroma gets a 4, but I'm sure that I knew what I was doing. Watery mouthfeel, almost nonexistent ending. Yikes!

Hard to get appropriate sample whilst at GABF, but I will say that I camped out at booth until I had sampled almost an entire bottle - one to two ounces at a time. So I will say that this is likely unfair to the beer. Initially over carbonated than almost flat. Hmm? Much softer in the hopping - more German than Czech? Not bad and enticing enough to make me want to get my hands on a good bottle all for myself instead of having to beg for another ounce.

I see now what you guys mean about New Glarus. Very tasty brews. Edel-Pils isn't as sweet as Norski but its also very good. A tad bit more bitter but not much. Very Drinkable. Could have parleyed this trip getting Belgium Red too but a waivered. Wish I hadn't.
