Cornfield (4261), Oak Forest, Illinois, USA Sep 7, 2006 Tasty, refreshing Pilsener that I would place in the northern German style. It pours a bright yellow body with lots of beading and a frothy white head. Good lacing. The aroma has a light biscuity smell covered by a solid herbal/floral hopping. Good malt flavors balance out nicely with a sturdy floral bitterness. Nice and crisp, dry, bitter finish. Good.

Drnk_McDermott (1545), Downers Grove, Illinois, USA Sep 5, 2006 RB Mug Club draft. Yay! I get to pop the cap on this new place. Golden yellow pils color in this big glass mug. Tends toward a brassy yellow. A thin head coats the sides of the glass as it goes down. Pretty standard pilsener smell, but that’s what you expect from this style. Taste is pretty decent, crisp malts and a Boho hop profile that’s pretty sharp, and leaves a nice bitter aftertaste. Substantial mouthfeel.
