A dense white head on a light golden body. The nose is enjoyable with elements of cereal, honey, and hay. As expected, Pils malts are in the forefront of the taste profile, with some extra fruity hops, dry grass, honey and roasted cereal blended in. A slight metallic taste is a bit odd, but doesn’t diminish the success of the overall taste.

500 ml can from the LCBO.
pale golden pour, with a small white head.
Aroma is light, some nice cereals, light grassy hops, but it lacks the punch of a great pils, but it’s close. The body is perfect, and the carbonation is soft, and spot on. The finish is lightly bitter, with some more nice cereal,s and grains. Crisp, clean, and refreshing.

Un petit fruité de levure frappe d’abord le nez. On dirait une levure Weizen. Légers tons de céréales, de pain frais et de beigne au miel. Présence de petits bonbons. De couleur dorée, claire, avec une mousse blanche et rocailleuse. Très effervescente à l’attaque, elle nous offre des tons de pain frais, de beigne au miel, avec une finale sèche et très légèrement houblonnée. Trop même. Le houblonnage à cru n’y parait point. Une Pilsner assez ordinaire.

(can) clear, bright amber colour with a small white head; aroma of stewed fruit; creamy palate; mild flavour with a long light bitter finish; not much of a pilzner, but a decent if forgettable beer

Draught at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver
Blond color, clean, with compact head. Dry, lean, with malt flavor, some hay, and some grassy hops; the bitterness is above the average; the aroma is too simple.
Not too bad.

This pils poured a light yellow colour with a big, white, frothy head. Scents include corn, a little honey and bread. First sip was smooth with a nice medium body and perfect carbonation. Flavours of corn and hops with a medium bitter finish.

This is not really a pleasant beer. Kind of a mess. Finishes kind of acrid. Pours golden without much head or lacing. Not even sure if this is saaz or munich here. There’s better pilseners than this in Toronto. Tap at C’est What.

Can: Poured a clear bright yellow color pilsner with a medium pure white foamy head with OK retention and some light lacing. Aroma of lightly sweet mal notes with very timid hops presence. Taste is also dominated by lightly sweet notes with also unnoticeable hops presence. Body is about average with good carbonation. Not bad but nothing really standing out that would make me want to go back and try this beer again.

Second brew from this brewery (after their IPA). Single can from the LCBO. Pours a clean golden colour with a frothy white head, good retention and dirty lacing. Smells like a Euro pils at first with hops, but then after breathing, seems like corn comes out making this one have a Canadian macro lager nose. When twirled, hints of cereal grains and alcohol appear. Again, this is the hop I do not like in my beers. Has a rusty taste to it. Thankfully, notes of grass saves this, from time-to-time. So, has many characteristics of a Euro Pils, but hard to justify buying more, as the Euro imports are less expensive here, and even a few are a little better.
