A crisp, hoppy take on the original session beer.
Gather your friends, pack the gear, and head out to wherever the day may take you. A midday go-to, Nooner is our take on the classic German-style pilsner—one of the original session beers. Nooner is easy drinking yet packed with the big flavor of spicy and floral whole-cone hops. Its brilliant golden color begs you to take a sip and sink your taste buds into an extremely welcoming beer, full of flavor and balanced by a crisp, dry finish.

Bottled. A golden beer with a lazing white head. The aroma has notes of straw and malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, straw, and a bit o f hops, leading to a bitter finish.

Random bottle in my fridge, likely from Kroger. Pours very clear light golden with a small white head. Aroma of grass and lemon. Flavor is bitter envelope glue-like with some grasses and not much else. Boring.

Can from London Colney M&S store, St Albans, Herts. A golden coloured pour with a medium white head on top. Vaguely hoppy, malty, citrus aroma. Tastes much the same, slightly hoppy, malty, some citrus fruit, bitter with a dry finish. A California tick for £1.25 is alright by me, decent enough pilsener from Sierra Nevada, like the can too.

James Hunter and this. Some grassy and oxidised notes. Very Pilsen-bready texture. Clean. Excellent yeast. Just wish it was fresh.

On tap at Torpedo Room in Berkeley, California-USA. Bright golden clear color, medium white foam. Nose: hay, more hay, grassy hops, rustic. Mouth: super clean, noble hops, a mild honey note. Perfect Pils in style! ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
