Commercial Description:
Bottle: Filtered.
Ingredients: 2 row German pale malt; Czech Saaz, German Northern Brewer hops.
Heaps o’ hops are hiding under the full, frothy head of this elegant Pils. All German malt subtleties linger beneath a long dry finish of this classy quencher.

Pours a light gold with a white head. Aroma of hops and doughy malt. Mouthfeel is very dry, and the taste is very crisp and hoppy. A very good pils.

Pours a golden yellow with a white frothy head. Hoppy sweet fruity aromas make them selves known. The flavor is of light hops with a little pine. Bitter end. Ok pils.

The first sip was like, "This is different" the second was "this is actually good". I noticed an light, almost grapefruit flavor to go with the hops. A good Lawnmower beer, I will buy again.

Pours a light golden color with lots of bubbles. Nice palate, very crisp and dry. Hops are a bit too dominating, but it seems like that’s what they were going for with this one. Slightly sweet finish. Overall pretty solid pils.

On tap at Novare Res. Golden color, high carbonation. Dry, dry, and crisp. Some nice light hopping. This is a solid Pils in every way.

12oz bottle. Light gold color with a very slight haze and a head with rather large bubbles. Strong earthy, spicy hops, and distinct bread crust in the aroma. The hops dominate the flavor profile, with a very light honey sweetness and bread flavor from the malt. Finishes dry and bitter with plenty of earthy, spicy hops. Light bodied with carbonation on the loose side. Seems in the german vein, with the lean malt and bitterness, and I tend to like that style of pilsener a bit less than the more balanced czech style; regardless, this had great hopping and would be a prima go-to beer in warm weather.

12oz bottle. Poured a pale yellow in color with a fluffy white head and nice lacing.Smell is fresh malt and flowery hops. Taste is a light sweet malt up front then the floral hops with some bitterness and a great dry finish.

Bottle. Poured a clear yellow color with rising carbonation and a rocky white head that slowly receded and left nice lacing. Aroma of soft pilsner malt, a bit of dough/breadiness, a hint of honey, and some leafy, earthy hoppiness. Crisp, smooth entry that leads into a soft biscuit-like flavor that transitions into an earthy hoppiness with some undertones of cracker and honey on the finish. Moderate carbonation, nice crisp finish. Easy drinking, and perhaps not exactly to style, but a good beer nonetheless.
