Solid pilsner with added tastes of apple, grain and a touch of brown sugar. Clean and smooth and nicely balanced

Decent cereal nose, a tad overly sweet malts. Not much in way of hops. It lacks a solid grassy hops presence. A touch watery, and soft carbonation. Sweet, malty, grainy finish. Minimal hops. I expected better.

On tap. Pours a pale gold with moderate head. Aromas of grain and cardboard. Flavours of soft toasted malts, corn syrup and cardboard. A malty lager...

Aroma is soft vegetable hops and nothing else. Has minimal head and a slightly cloudy yellow body. Flavour is kind of a vegetably hop flavour but not really much going on here honestly. Mouthfeel is crisp at least. This is an okay pils but seriously missing character.

355ml can. Pours a clear pale gold with a medium, creamy, short lived, white head that laces. Mild aroma of grainy pale malt, apple and lager yeast. Sweet flavour of grainy pale malt, corn, apple, faint lemon and bitter grass with a clean, crisp, dry hoppy finish. Light body with a watery texture and average carbonation. A flavourful Czech Pilsner.

Poured from 355mL can. Clear, blonde with minimal white head. Aroma quite generic grainy. Light, sweet, cereal flavour. Not bad.
