Bottled@Oliver Twist, Stockholm. Golden colour, small off-white head. Aroma is toffee, caramel, wood and some rather bready malts along with mild saltwateryness. Flavour is quite much the same. Quite balanced and pleasant Pils.

Scrimshaw Pilsner is mild and sweet, fairly appropriate for the style. It’s drinkable if boring. The beer’s appearance is nothing to speak of at any great length: a nice golden beer with a light head. The smell is similarly nondescript but without any bitterness, which I appreciate. The taste is sweet and mildly citric with very little bitterness. The finish is pleasantly dry.

On tap at Sheffield’s. Poured a light clear gold with a white head. Aroma had a combination of malts and hops but the malts are more prevalent leading to a grainy aroma. Flavor was crisp and a bit dark for a pils with a nice dry finish.

Picked up a 12 oz from Gilly's
Aroma: A little bready, faint fruit scent
Appearance: Clear, light gold color; Fizzy head disappears quickly.
Flavor: Nice light flavor, slightly sweet and light hops
Palate: Light body, dry finish, fizzy beer
Overall Impression: For a standard looking pale, it has a nice light flavor, put is relatively enjoyable for its style. Probably a good beer for a hot day, but certainly not very complex.

Sample at Dewey’s Pizza in Grandview. The beer is a clear golden color with a medium thin and fizzy white head that burns away steadily. Stringy lacing. Mildly hoppy aroma with some bready notes. Light body with a lightly spiced hops flavor along with some touches of sweet malt and citrus. The finish is lightly hopped with a short spiced aftertaste. Just average overall.

Pours gold into a shaker. Fluffy bright white head with good retention consolidates before receding. Caramel and mild pine aromas. Crisp with fruity caramel upfront turning to a lasting, almost painful, tingling bitter metallic finish.
