Heaps of hops give this pale lager a bracing, herbal bite over layers of soft and smooth malt flavor. This refreshing combination of tastes makes Prima a classy quencher in the tradition of the great pilsners of Europe. Dry and delightful, this is an elegant beer. Malts: 2 row German Pilsner malt Hops: German and Czech whole flowers

Pours a light gold, slightly cloudy with a 2 finger white head. The head dissipates after a few minutes but leaves some nice sticky lacing behind. Aroma of hops, spice, citrus. Flavour is just great starting with both the hops and malt, a touch of lemon/citrus flowing into a strong bitter hop finish. Crisp and clean to the max very drinkable with lots of flavour. Medium bodied well carbonated mouthfeel suits this brew well. Very good.

    355ml bottle into glass. Sweet bubblegum nose with hints of grain. Amber beer with thin white head. Laces well. Hardly a bubble to be seen. Super easy drinking, grainy taste with bitter lemon notes. Finish has more grain and lemon with subtle malt background. Excellent Pils.

    12oz bottle picked up at Total Beverage
    Clear golden with a medium sized white head and some lacing. Aroma of malts, bready, grassy and spices. Flavors of doughy, grassy, salt, sweet and sticky
    OK, but not for me.

    12 oz brown bottle. Pop lid for a musty yeast arome, in a good way. Pours like any other common pale yellow american beer. has a shallow froth on top. Initially the flavor is fruity hoppy. Not real bitter hoppy. Taste is much better than the label indicates. As you drink, the bitterness in the finish begins to build. Good creamy micro bubble palate. Pretty enjoyable, except for that medium hoppy kick. It leaves you bitter for a few moments after the last sip. Rather enjoyable for a hoppy brew but less enjoyable than a well behaved gentleman’s lager. Not as good as Bavik, but OK. Right along side of Schell and Urquell.

    Pours clear bright gold with short lived white head. The modest aroma seems to be dominated by spicy hops with thin layers of floral hops and faint sweetness around the edges. The taste is up front bitter noble hops creating a mostly spicy profile with lesser amounts of floral and shrubbery like earthiness. Flavor hops grow to midway aided by faint sugary malt sweetness. It ends with a return of hop bitterness heading into the finish and after taste. Reminds me of a more bitter version of Sam Adams Boston Lager back in the early 90s with my early 90s palate.

    Feb. 2015: 355 ml bottle, Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 5.3%. Clear golden colour, moderate to low white head. Nice aroma of floral, grassy and herbal hops, some sweetish malts in the background. Medium sweet and malty flavour, followed by distinct herbal hops. A good pilsener indeed, but some European ones are better.

    Pours a typical but attractive clear yellow, not much head. Aroma is malty and pleasant, seems to have a peaty hint. Flavor is fuller than that of most pilsners I have tried - mainly malty, a hoppy hint and a suggestion of fruit flavor, maybe apple. Jazzier than the typical pilsner, not at all watery - savory and satisfying.

    Pours a golden straw color with a large white head with average retention. Eventually, the head settles to nice patches of lacing left on the glass. The aroma is very zesty and grassy from the hops, with just a touch of citrus and earth. The hops take center stage over the pils malt backbone. The taste has lots of hop flavor and bitterness abound. Grass and earth are the initial flavors, before giving way to black pepper, grapefruit rind, lemon zest, and pine notes on the finish and aftertaste. The mouthfeel is light and spritzy with healthy carbonation and big dryness, but it's incredibly refreshing on a hot day

    A good "sessionable" pils to borrow a phrase. Clear golden yellow with a tight head. Grains and grass ahbound. Very little hoppiness and not very sweet. Crisp finish. Would drink again, but not go out of my way for it.
