    Bottle. Wow, a lot better than I expected. Poured a clear yellow color with a thick white head and good lacing. Sweet malty aroma. Flavor was very good for a pils, with a floral tone to it. As pilseners go, this is one of the best I've had. Usually not my thing, but this worked for me.

    Quite an enjoyable pils! Definitely more hoppier than most pilsner's available on the market. Aroma is grassy, slightly floral and some graininess in there. Appearance is a off-gold color, white head with staying power. Mouthfeel is...well the best way I could describe it is mouthwatering. Clean, crisp and mouthwatering. Flavors are spicy, hoppy, and nicely balanced with the malt. As I stated, this is signifigantly more hopped than most pilsners so it's very enjoyable. Time to spread the word about this one!

Crisp and clean. Nice pilsner. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and crisp. Aftertaste is slightly bitter.

    Pours with a pale yellow body topped by a medium thick head with a good amount of lacing. The aroma and flavor are slightly sweet yet bitter and grassy with a slight note of flowers. Smooth and a touch dry.
