May 15, 2006 Charlotte NC Prospector’s Pilsner-on tap-pours a creamy white head with yellow color. Aroma is sweet grain, faint hops. Taste is sweet grain, faint hops, dry, distinct biting hop finish. Nice.

Nov 29, 2005 On tap at Arlington location, 11/17/05, listed at 6.0% abv. Light golden, short head, good lacing. Aroma is sweet with a warm hop. Not much detectable Saaz hop in this version - just lots and lots of Hallertau. Taste was sugary sweet malts and a warm bitter finish. I was hoping for something more exciting on this one.

Jun 25, 2003 Draft, Chicago At the downtown Rock Bottom, they named it “Rooftop Pilsner” for its rooftop dining area (with a fine view of all the much taller yuppie condos surrounding it). They had to brew this in a hurry following the May windstorm that blew their rooftop taps open, draining all of their serving tanks!
Pretty good for a style which we've all had bad examples of. Have to give a "5" for appearance, it looks just right. Fizzy head leaves a golden yellow color underneath. No off-flaveors to speak of. Nice citrsy hop aroma which I found to be a little stronger after a scoop of salsa. As the Milwaukee corrspondent notes, a decent session beer.
