Lindeboom Pilsener

Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 5 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 6

Clear yellow, big lasting, lacing white foam head. Barley aroma, some hay tones there. Nice pilsener taste, nothing special, just nice. Still hard to get this beer in my part of Holland. (Velp 201504)

The bottle says 'Pilsener' on it, not simply 'Pils'. That aside, this is a weak attempt at a classic central European style. The graininess is too far to the stale side, and the hops are almost non-existent. If you concentrate enough, you can taste them.

It's just the same old grassy, skunky Euro brew that folks seem to go absolutely ga-ga over. Nothing special and certainly a below average beer. Deeper golden color than most - thick head that dissapates quickly. Decent lacing, but why bother with a complete lack of flavor or decent aroma?

Bottled. Golden colour, mediumsized white head. Aroma is grass, hay and some earthy hops. Flavour is saltwatery, strangely sweet, grassy and towards the finish it gets quite hayish.

300 ml bottle, now available in Norway (Vinmonopolet). Golden colour. large head. Fairly malty aroma for a pilsener, flavour is also relatively sweet for a pils, there’s some unpleasant cardboard / boiled vegetables hints in the background, tolerable hops in the finish. A drinkable pils after all, but it can’t match the best Czech and German pilseners.

Bottle. Golden colour with a large white head. Sweet malty aroma. Sweet malty and decently hoppy taste. Medium mouthfeel. Moderate carbonation. Better than I was expecting.
