Rich, characterful, pale Czech lager, with considerable malt and hop character with a long rounded finish. Complex yet well-balanced and refreshing.

Aroma of crisp lager with some gold hops. Has okay foam with a clear gold body. Flavour is nice and dry pilsner with honey notes. Crisp on the mouth. Well refined and clean, quite nice.

At Guuu: pours golden with white head. Aroma is grassy amd a bit sweet with some grain. This is a competent pilsner and worked well with the japanese food I was eating.

Slightly dull gold. Thin head. Mushroomy nose is as much sticky under fermented pale malt as hop. Light bitterness but the flavour has a lot of cabaggey sulphur stuff. Execution certainly leaving something to be desired.

On tap at Strathcona, pours a clear pale golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out light grassy notes, some biscuity malt and lightly sweet cereal. Flavour is very restrained, with grassy hops and dry crisp crackery malt. Lacking depth for the style, but it is brewed decently. Not as bad as the Italian says, but it's quite boring.

Draught at the brewery
Blond color, large bubbles. Not exactly a Pilsner, rather a common Lager, with just a bit more malts than a mass Lager, but also with a shade of paper that is not exactly exciting.
Boring.

I’ll drink Persephone Amarillo Pilsner later tonight. Besides the usage of American hops, I suggest Strathcona to taste it to feel what a good malt job should taste like.
