Burning Beard Normcore Czech-style Pilsner 5.5% Deeper gold than the BBR with a thin finger of fizzy white foam. The aroma is grainy sweet malts with perfume floral hops. Medium to full bodied with a nice crisp finish and fruity notes in the aftertaste. Nice solid beer.

Deep golden color. Frothy white head. Excellent grassy nose with nice cereal malt character in the background. Fantastic nose. Off sweet palate, aggressive bitterness, but balanced nicely. Slightly tart. Both the malt and hops shine. Dry bitter finish. I cant believe the ratings are so low for this. This is an outstanding take of a Czech Pils. Very impressive

Can from Bine & Vine. Pours coppery gold with a decent white head. Mildly spicy Saaz aroma. Med body. Flavor is Saaz spicy (and seemingly white grape!) over nice pale malt. Not a cheap pale malt. Pretty dry. Just a tinge of malt sweetness. Nicely bitter. One of the better American Pils I've had.

473ml can. Minimally milky, orangey golden colour with average, frothy to creamy, slowly osteoporosing, minimally lacing, white head. Spicy malty and grassy hoppy aroma with a minimally floral touch, chamomile, minimally yeasty doughy overtones. Taste is initially minimally bready, spicy malty and grassy, minimally floral hoppy, later more and more bitter hoppy, very subtle sweetness, a touch of chamomile; lingering (hop) oily finish. Oily texture, smooth and soft palate, gentle carbonation. Very nice.
