Pours a pale yellow with thin white head. Smell is grassy and lemon. Taste is similar to the nose with herbal hints. The finish is very crisp and dry. I found this to be very drinkable.

Serving: 12 oz. bottle. Appearance: Pale gold color with a foamy, white head. Decent head retention and only spotty lacing. Aroma: Grass, noble hops, a bit of euro lager, and not much on the malt side. Flavor: Spicy hops, grass notes, a bit of grainy sweetness, and a decent back bitterness. No award winner, but not too terrible either. Palate: Medium-high carbonation with a light mouthfeel and a medium, bitter finish. Overall: I’ve had better pils, but I didn’t find this one to be as bad as others said. Take it or leave it.

Bottle. Clear, pale golden pour with a short-lived, bubbly white head. Grainy aroma has notes of sweetness, funk and malt. Flavour is very similar; a bit sweeter and with hints of citrus and hops. Light, dry mouthfeel with a nice amount of hoppy bitterness that lingers. A pretty nice pilsener, easy to drink and very refreshing.

Green 12 oz bottle. Pours a pale yellow with a foamy white head. Nose is grassy, skunk. Flavor is corn, cardboard, paper, metal. Fizzy mouthfeel. Ugh.

12oz bottle. Pours a clear, bright, heavily effervescent yellow color; fluffy white head with good retention and mixed-bubbled lacing. Slight amount of skunky character in the nose, but underneath is a pleasant floral and herbal bitterness and a nice dry core; I think would be quite exceptional in a non-idiotic bottling. Lively carbonation; again, a light skunking, slightly overzealous bubbles, but the core is nicely dry, the herbal notes and mineral hop presence follow through; a very nice pilsener that fails by its green bottle and poor carbonation control; which is sad, because there’s a really great beer here otherwise. With time, the skunk fades and the bubbles (with some vigorous swirling) go back where they came from; deservedly underappreciated? We’re close to the source, and I’m hoping to try this on tap if I can find it somewhere. Medium finish of basic toastiness and sugar; touches of cardboard; nicely dry, with a touch of mineral zestiness; bit o’ skunk.

Green bottle...Uh oh. Pours with a pale yellow body and a fluffy white head. Grassy, skunky lightstruckness, grainy, bread. Definitely not the worst pilsner I have smelled from a green bottle. Taste is harsh, metallic, light struck, bitter. Corn and bready notes. Thin and violently fizzy. Not good. Why green bottles?

Pour a yellow with a green twinge. Small light white head. Smells lightly of citrus. Taste is of grain with a even bitter sweet flavor. Soft feel and moderate carbonation.

Do I really need to describe the skunky pils aromas and flavors? Do I need to tell you that it has a grainy flavor with some stinky hops? Oh shit, I guess I just did.
