Notes from March 2011 Nice extra thrown in by my trading buddy up in Beantown. Ommegang Anniversary glass. Still pretty chilly. Big, lumpy, textured white head. Clear, classic amber body. Wiry waves of lace. Smell is green & herbal. Hops seem a tad sharp. Very dry biscuit malt & noticeable alcohol. Almost a notion of fruit as it warms, but no. :P Bittergreen, leafy, & a touch iron-y. A bit sharp. Sizable amount of hops used. Malt is cracker dry with barely any sweetness. I would of enjoyed a little more of a grain profile personally. Frothy, but not all that carbonated. Still pretty crispy because it's so fresh. Alcohol seems slightly bigger then the paltry 4% stated. Feels more acidic then your standard American brewed Pils. Pretty clean for a contract brew. Shouldn't be surprised, because Ipswich makes good beer.

16 oz can from Half Time, 7/31/24. Pours a clear golden color with a white head and moderate lace. Grainy and bright. Herbal and grassy. Touch of lemon. Fairly dry. Flavorful. No complaints. 7/4/7/4/16

Taster pour from a can at The Beer Store, Salem. Clear yellow with thin head. Aroma and taste are more a European pale malt than Pilsner per se. Neither is bold. Clean, refreshing, light bodied. Fine but nothing amazing or recommendable. Built for multiple pints--true dat! Supercharged macro but perhaps forgivable at 4% ABV.

Can and draft since debut, most recently on draft at The Hill Tavern, late October 2022. Clear, bright, well-carbonated, blonde-golden with a sizeable, white head. Soft, delicate, floral hops and plentiful honey and biscuit-like-like malts balance. Clean, no alcohol. Soft, malty, quite hoppy with assertive but not overdone bitterness. Dense malts with lots of texture and good attenuation. A great beer, and one that shows up in a lot of places lacking in great beer.

Yellow with a strong, pungent, bitter hop aroma. Taste is like a slightly off Czech Pilsner, with that crisp hop finish .

12 oz. can at The Sevens Ale House in Boston, Mass. Clear yellow pour with a white head and very good retention. Semi-crisp pils malt with a touch of citrus sweetness. Low bitterness. Good.

Can shared by Jeff, thanks. Gold color. Light bitterness and malt flavor Good malt but lacks a hop profile that a good pilsner needs. Soft, smooth palate.

Bukowski, Boston tap: poura gold with a white head. Aroma is grainy and lightly hoppy. Taste is lightly bitter. Not exactly watery. Very slightly sweet. Does work as a czech pils. Pretty good.
