The classic Czech Pilsner is the inspiration for this modern twist on an original beer designed for easy drinking. More hoppy than traditional, this beer features imported Saaz hops and straight pilsner malt. Crisp and refreshing.

16oz can from Halftime. Almost clear golden, small foamy head. Sweet, grainy aroma. Crisp, biscuity taste, snappy. This is really nice. Tasty, smooth.

On tap at As Is NYC on 7th July 2016. Crystal clear gold with thin off-white decaying foam and initial lacing. Crisp grassy hops and biscuit malts in aroma. Zesty grapefruit peel and toffee malts in-mouth. Sweet malts and nuttiness accompany grassiness in the finish, although this proves to be somewhat short-lived. Light bodied with a zingy mouthfeel.

Hops Hill, Brooklyn tap: pours golden with a white head. Aroma is grass and straw. Taste is bitter and grassy. Very much so. Pretty good pils in my opinion.
