BeerHawk (1175), Huntsville, Alabama, USA Sep 27, 2009 Bottle. Poured golden with a thin white head. Hoppy citrus and floral aroma. The flavor has more floral with a backing of citrus and caramel. Light body and a mild bitterness. danielst (131), Vienna, Austria Sep 26, 2009 12 oz. bottle: The aroma is of flowery, grassy hops with a lightly sweet straw/pale malt component. A pale yellow colour with a fluffy and stable white head, leaving a nice lacing on the glass. The flavour has an outstanding noble hop complexity: Grassy and fruity, but also resinous and leaf-like. Those flavours are not bold but kept subtle and appropriate. The bitterness is higher medium for the style. An appetising, high quality Pils. Allen (1285), Switzerland Sep 23, 2009 Bottled. Beautiful pale yellow (very pale indeed) beer with a lacing white head. Absolutely fantastic aroma of sweat, gooseberries, pineapple, clotted cream, wonderful hops, blood orange, rose, elderflower, wild strawberries and basil. Great taste where the gooseberry component is rather present. A cheeky interpretation of the style. Long dryish finish which is reminiscent of tropical fruit. Good bitterness. Complex. Definetely a top notch Pilsener. Flawless. Incredible. A "must try" for any fan of the style. Weedking4 (33), Stratford, Ontario, Canada Sep 22, 2009 12oz Bottle. Pours a very golden yellow colour. Very tasty and easy to drink. I could drink 37 of these and not feel a buzz. Solid brew overall, definately the best pilsner I have ever had. Then again I am stuck with canadian pilsners who eat a big bag of dicks. Bejaaamin (110), London, Ontario, Canada Sep 16, 2009 light hazy straw, whispy head. nose; bright hopiness, sharp citrus, fresh bread, forest, almost piney. goes down beautifully, clean, fresh, hoppy, very tasty, very refreshing. becksgenius (105), Illinois, USA Sep 15, 2009 Reminds me of the pilsners that can only be gotten on tap in Germany. Color, head, aroma are as good as it gets for a pils. Flavor is amazing. This is as good a bottled pilsner that can be found stateside. JAXSON (229), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA Sep 15, 2009 Bottle. Pours a fairly clear straw color with a nice white fizzy head. Nose is fresh wheat, gentle hops (saaz?) and a bit of lemony. Crisp, highly refined flavor. The hops are gentle and meld perfectly with the bright, citric qualities. Has only a bit of lingering bitterness. Not quite as good as the CBC pilseners from Victory, but a pleasure to drink nonetheless. saxo (3511), Hřjbjerg, Aarhus, Denmark Sep 15, 2009 Bottle. Nice head with good duration. Color is golden. Aroma and taste are sweet malt, hops and notes of caramel and flowers.
