Nov 4, 2009 yellow golden pour with a nice white head and lots of lacing. mild grassy aroma. Tingly (is that a word?) palate. i like hoppy beers, but for some reason this one didnt work. I got a taste of very bitter cardboard. I am going to have to come back to this one, as i do have a cold, which could be causing my taste buds to be off.

Nov 3, 2009 Tap at Barcade: Pours a crisp, still light golden with perfect clarity and a dense white head. Clean, bright and grassy aroma with a spicy noble hop presence and very light crackery pils notes. Crisp dry body with a very dry and bitter flavor. There’s just enough crackery pils malt at the base to support the huge heavy noble peppery bitterness- which is almost vegetal like. Probably the driest and most bitter Pilsner I’ve had to date. Fantastic!

Oct 27, 2009 Draught. At Cole’s, Buffalo, NY. I want to start by saying my older sister, who is a wine lover and not enamoured much of beer (Molson and Labbat have a lot to answer for), LOVED this beer - and man oh man is it hoppy - I’m stunned. Poure clear light gold with an average draught white head. The aroma is solid, but sneaky - medium pungent grassy hops, a bit floral and spicy, a bit musty and a little clover-sweet. The taste - holy CRAP - huge pungent leafy/grassy bitter hop explosion - that’s it, just hops - some alcohol, and dry, but it grabs your tongue and leaves you with that "I’ve just bit into a unpeeled grapefruit" coated dry/bitter tongue - such a thick-bodied, crisp, lively mouthfeel too, and a finish that just doesn’t quit - wow: I’ve had DIPAs that are less bitter than this - well done!!!

May 19, 2009 On tap at the Grey Lodge. Clear straw with a brief white head. Nose is dough, honey and a touch of lemon zest. Crisp, almost creamy, with a slight tingle. Taste is bready, citrus peel and lime. Dry finish with grass and a green peppercorn bite. Wonderful session stuff.

May 8, 2009 Sampled on draft at Blind Tiger months and months ago. I think last summer.Pours a slightly hazy yellow body. It had a slight hop and bread aroma and flavor was refreshing and drinkable.

Mar 3, 2009 A fine example of a pilsner. Nice aroma and flavor. Not overpowering in the least. Good balance. Well done
