Slightly bitter, mild, with a fragrance of hops - our pilsner is a cut above the ordinary. A beer with character.

Bottled@(apparently) Delirium Café, Gothenburg 2006. Clear golden colour with mediumsized creamy head, that leaves nice lace. Aroma is grassy hops, some slight earthyness as well as mild notes of cardboard. Flavour is quite the same, but the grassyness is stronger.

...bottle. Poured a light clear and carbonated yellow with a large white head that was mostly lasting. On the nose were hops, grass, and other earthy notes. Flavors were of light malt, hops and a slight hint of citrus. Finished clean crisp and dry, a good pils, but of course does not come anywhere near the hefes.

500ml bottle into wheat beer glass. Clear golden liquid with 3 fingers of white head. Flowery hoppy aroma. Smooth sweetish hoppy mid palate that finishes with a wonderfully crisp refreshing bitterness. This is a great under-rated pilsner in my opinion.

Pale golden colour, lively carbonation at first that settles down quickly... cream head, not strong. Smooth, Bitter and sweet.... slight sourness on the back of the tounge... Very refreshing... slight aftertaste.

Shared this one w/ SkyCop32. Picked up at Maruhn Getränke in Darmstadt. Pours a bright gold amber color. Aromas fruit, floral, and malt. Flavor is malty, with a fine hop taste. Hop finish and aftertaste.

Tasting at Three Cellars Milwaukee. Very basic straight forward pilsner.

Clear yellow with a pillowy white head. Earth hops, malty, and a bit of citrus in the nose. Smooth body with a light dry bite at the end. Muted flavor with the hops being the most prominent feature. Some sweet malt lies underneath. Decent, but a bit of a let down, actually.
