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.

Thanks to Badbeer. 12oz bottle. Pours straw yellow with a thin fizzy head, some lace. Smells light malty and grainy. Tastes light and crisp malty, lots of sweet grain flavor. Medium body, good carbonation.

Bottle, pours a straw yellow, almost gold body with white pillowy head. Aroma of wheat, light citrus, and a hint of straw. Flavor is more of the same with more of a lemon note. Light-bodied with a smooth, slightly oily mouthfeel. Light malt and wheat finish.

Pours a clear yellow golden with a small off white head. Aroma is lemony and grass, maybe a hint of corn. Flavor is nicely bitter but there is a nice sweetness to balance it all out. Medium body, very crisp mouthfeel. Finish is long and fruity.

Bottle thanks to James. Pour bright golden with thin layer of white gauze on top. Very appealing. Despite good carbonation, something about the mouthfeel didn’t sit great with me. Floral hops and corn/grain on the nose. Same on the taste, but with a sweet corn taste lingering too long. Not the crisp bitter finish I’d expect from a pilsener. The corn thing hit me a little hard, but other than that, a very drinkable beer and another solid brew from New Glarus.

Bottle. Pours a crystal clear bright gold with a thin bubbly head that shows good retention due to the big carbonation. Lacing is sporadic. The smell is dominated by grains, barley mostly, and some floral hops. There is also a sweet bready malt undertone throughout the nose. The taste follows the smell with floral hops up front followed by the sweet malt backbone before a very slight hop bitterness in the finish. Mouthfeel is creamy for the style but still crisp and clean with big carbonation. This is very drinkable and great example of a pils. I could drink this all night on a summer evening.
