Sep 1, 2008 Bottle. Decent enough pilsener, far cry from a German pils, too sweet and not dry enough for that. Pretty generic with some decent sweet bread character. Alright, but not great.

Sep 1, 2008 Pretty grassy with strong wheat aroma. Light. Smooth. Not bad for a style I don’t care for. With a few tastes, I can fruit as well. Nice.

Aug 30, 2008 Well, it’s not bad for a German Pils, but then again, there’s no such thing as a great German Pils. A bit of hay, grass and cereal with a slight metallic tinge, light hops and sweetness, bit of sourness that I wasn’t crazy about. Light, easy drinking, nothing too out there. Bit gassy.

Aug 28, 2008 12 oz bottle from Discount Liquor. Pours a clear yellow with a white head. Nose has a lot of grain and hay with little hops coming through. Sweet malt flavors that have too much hay and grain with a nominal grassy hop finish. I like my pils less in the European style of hay malts but cleaner and hoppier. Not bad for a European Pilsner but not especially good either. I’ll rate this one more time yet to be sure.

Aug 24, 2008 Pours golden yellow with a sudsy white head. The aroma has clean pale malt and is richer than most pils with the hops taking a back seat. The malt is perfect & wish there were more hops, but it is still fantastic. Medium body that is thicker and richer than most in the style with smooth underscored sharp carbonation. The flavor begins with rich pils malt and a bit of spicy / grassy hops. The finish is a bit hoppier and it is extremely clean. Fantastic version of a pils.

Aug 18, 2008 Thanks to Ken for this one. Clear pale yellow body with no head. Very nice aroma of honey and hay, hitting the nose lightly, but pleasantly noticeable. The flavor falls off for me though. I get a lot of sweet honey but no hop character to speak of. The body was not very dry, but also not too sticky or full.
