330 ml bottle into lager glass, best before 5/10/2018. Pours crystal clear medium golden yellow color with a 1 finger dense and rocky white head with awesome retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings down the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of big cracker, white bread dough, lightly toasted biscuit, light nuttiness/pepper, and herbal/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance of pale malt and earthy hop notes; with great strength. Taste of big cracker, white bread dough, lightly toasted biscuit, light nuttiness/pepper, and herbal/grassy earthiness. Light-moderate herbal, grassy, peppery bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of cracker, white bread dough, lightly toasted biscuit, nuttiness, pepper, and herbal/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Great robustness and balance of pale malt and earthy 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 yeast 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 fantastic. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 4.8%. Overall this was an excellent German pilsener! All around great robustness and balance of pale malt and earthy hop flavors; very smooth, crisp, clean, and refreshing to drink; with the modestly bitter/drying finish, never aggressive. Clean and nicely rich malts, balanced noble hops. Getting a bit of Munich malt character, but this was still very enjoyable and a spot on style example overall.

330 ml bottle served in flute. Pours bright golden with decent head. Grain, citrus, grass, hops extract. Very bitter with metallic notes. Light bodied, soft carbonated. Bitter finish. Typical northern German Pils, very crisp and bitter.

Klare, goldene Farbe mit mittelporiger, weißer Schaumkrone. Hopfig würziger, getreidiger Geruch. Malzig getreidiges Grundgerüst mit aufkommender, trockener Bitterkeit, grasiger Hopfen. Klare, einfache Linie, unkompliziert zu trinken.

Draft @ In De Wildeman on a hot Monday afternoon. Clear pale golden color. White head. Aroma’s: fruity and grainish, with light malty sweetness and upcoming bitterness retronasal. Flavor is light moderate bitter with light malty sweetness. Light bodied. Long dry and moderate bitter finish. A bit too fruity for me, but very clean and crisp, ideal for a Summer’s day like this.
