A n. German pilsner 5.5% Crystal clear gold, minimal white head. Quite an earthy & light malt aroma. The same rough carbonation, maybe a touch less sharp. The taste is biscuit, earthy, grassy & lightly herbal. Quite a classic pils with a big light malt body and a dry hoppy finish. A solid example of the style & much more representative than their California common.

Deep blond color with small head. Delicate malt aroma. Good malt flavor, a bit chewy, almost sweet for a Pilsner, heavy, with a good mouthfeel; light grassy touch, although some Pilsners have more evident noble hops; the final is also a bit herbaceous, maybe something to eliminate.
Good malty one.

On tap at 33 Acres, pours a clear pale golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of grassy hops and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is quite authentic, with lots of grass, corn and crisp biscuity malt. There seems to be a bit of a cereal-like residual sweetness on the finish that could be better concealed. Still, quite drinkable. Decent pils.

Slightly hazy, earthy, mushroomy aroma and flavour. Medium, clean bitterness, some slightly doughy pale malts late, giving it more a Bavarian character than North German, but that’s splitting hairs. It’s a good, balanced pilsner.
