Despite Simplex being an ale, it has all the characteristics of an old-styled pils. It is a blond, unfiltered, unpasteurized, hoppy and bitter beer that remains low in alcohol. Resulting in a straw blonde, highly drinkable beer with plenty of flavor and character.
Taste: Refreshing, light and with a firm bitterness

Bottle from Systembolaget. Gentle aroma that blends pilsner and golden belgian. Nice appearnce with lasting froffy foam. Taste is an interesting mix of those two styles. Still, wouldn't order another if in a bar.

Bottle, huge thanks Nino and Casey for sharing with us! Hazy golden-yellow body, white head. Hmm... fruitier than expected profile, some cooked fruit touches, but not in a bad way, with very well integrated phenolics and noticeable bitterness. Good stuff!

33 cl bottle @ home. Bottled 01/2021, BBE 14.01.2023. Rated on 9.5.2021 Aroma has apricot, belgian yeast and grassy hops. Foamy-ish palate. Flavour has some apricot, fruity tones. Finishes with strong grassy hoppiness. A crisp Belgian pale. Not sure if it is a good idea to name a beer according to a virus though.
