Light hazy golden colour, white foam. Rather hoppy and dry pils. Nice and easy drinkable.

Pale lager in the Lupulus brand, relatively new on the market - this brand is getting more and more commercial every day, I have the impression. Thick and frothy, cobweb-lacing, snow white, bit irregular and rather large-bubbled yet stable head on a slightly hazed (probably just chill haze in this case), straw blonde beer with warm deep golden tinge and whirls of sparkling rushing throughout. Aroma of fresh white bread dough, crushed dry cereals, chamomille, baking soda or even a touch of chalk, fresh young grass leaves, sweetclover, old bread crumbs somewhere, hint of hard unripe pear. Very crisp onset, sharp and very minerally carbonation, piercing through a very subtle unripe pear fruity touch but completely 'clean' and non-estery, directly tapping into a smooth, grainy maltiness, pure Pilsener malt sweetishness with a slender bready core, continuously refreshened by this minerally sparkling, evolving into a hoppy finish with a lingering, leafy bitterness and retronasal field-flowery and grassy accents. A simple but pure, noble hop bitterness rounding off a lightly bready all-malt character, with the whole remaining focused, crystal-clear and balanced: this is not a bad 'pils' indeed - it reminds me of some classic German Pilseners and in that sense caters for the slowly but unmistakably growing demand for more 'regional', smaller scale, pure and characterful alternatives for bland industrial pale lager - alternatives which are offered more and more throughout the country, often by simply returning to the history of the style and returning to purity, cleanness, noble hoppiness and all-maltiness. I have nothing against this trend even if Pilsener is not my favourite beer genre (not even my favourite Lager genre), so as I usually conclude in this kind of cases: take this from the shelf instead of Jupiler, Stella or Maes.

Small to medium snowwhite head over veiled yellow beer. Convincingly "dry", herb nose, grassy, hay, suggesting hard EU hops. Dry, herb , faintly grassy with a dry, just-not-sweet pale malts underbuild. Quite well-balanced, satisfying. Green leavesm mild bitterness in the mouth. Light body, nowhere empty. Certain slickness, medium carbonation. Much better than average Pilsner. Thanks to Stef!
