Pounder: Hay nose, mildly fecal. Slightly hazy yellow, medium head. Hay, with hints of aspartame and thyme, subtle melon. Light body, easy carbonation. Refreshing, different.

$3 pounder can from vintage, with a very weird lime green label. Non discrete aroma, simply mild metallic pilz. Pale yellow pour. Big foaming head. Taste is full of old country pilsner, not very astringent like so many domestic wannah beez, but certainly pilz. Yes, it is tolerable. Middle has some sharper bitterness building. Easy does it and fer sher, you know this is pilz. Non exciting as far as ABV goes but has a dull uninteresting finish; its OK overall in a pinch. Flavor is better than the label would indicate, thank you.

Draught. One of those beers welcome on a very hot day. Grainy aroma. Light malty flavour with clean finish. Drink cold.

16 ounce can into lager glass, best before 1/18/2019. Pours crystal clear pale golden yellow color with a 1 finger dense and rocky white head with great retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of big cracker, white bread dough, and toasted biscuit; with lighter notes of honey, nuttiness, pepper, and herbal/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance of bready malt and light-moderate earth hop notes; with great strength. Taste of big cracker, white bread dough, and toasted biscuit; with lighter notes of honey, nuttiness, pepper, and herbal/grassy earthiness. Light-moderate herbal, grassy, peppery bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of cracker, white bread dough, toasted biscuit, light honey/nutty, pepper, and herbal/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Awesome robustness and balance of bready malt and light-moderate earth hop flavors; with an awesome malt/bitterness balance, and zero astringent hop flavors after the finish. Moderately crisp/clean finishing. Perfectly clean on lager flavors, with zero fruity notes present. Light-moderate increasing dryness from bitterness. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth and moderately bready/grainy/sticky balanced mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 5%. Overall this is an awesome German pilsener! All around great robustness and balance of bready malt and light-moderate earth hop flavors; very smooth, crisp, clean, and refreshing to drink with the modestly bitter/drying finish. Very flavorful and never watery for the ABV. Very clean and nicely rich pale/Munich malts, with nice noble hop presence/balance. A really enjoyable offering, and great style example. Glad they went went traditional on it, instead of their usual American over hopping of lagers I've had in the past.

Can shared with my brother-in-law. Thanks Ryan! Pours a clearish gold with a finger of foam that lingers. Lots of buttery aromas with some twig and grain notes. Earthy grain, toasted granola and butter on the palate. Feels heavy and not very crushable. Some herbal notes as well. Not really diggin' this at all.

Can. Milk, barley malt, and straw aroma. Golden yellow with nice white head. Mildly sweet lemon, barley malt, and moderately bitter fresh hay flavor. Body a bit light. Nice straight forward pilsner.
