Bottle: Poured a dark golden color pils with a huge pure white foamy head with good retention and minimal lacing. Aroma of Noble hops is more dominant then expected with a clean malt profile. Taste is also a mix between clean and lightly sweet malt profile with some distinctive dry Noble hops. Full body with some good carbonation. A bit hoppier then I was expected but still very enjoyable.

12 fl oz bottle. Pours almost clear and golden yellow with a white head. Mild spiced and hoppy aroma. Smooth hoppy and caramel flavoured. Light bitterness. Mediocre (hard to follow-up on an afternoon at Stones)

Pours hazy golden color with white head. Mild bread and grass aromas. Slightly sweet with a little bitterness. Light body with a good amount of carbonation. Nice and refreshing, a solid pilsener

Lightgolden color. Foamy white color. Grassy aroma and kinda earthy. Not really crispy. Bitter but only a little. Not too complex taste or nothin’.

Weak barley malt aroma. Hazy amber color, thin head. Tastes of lemon, wheat, and rice. Weak lemon grass finish. Tart.

Pours with a large, rocky, white head with good retention that covers a clear golden body. Aroma is of berries, fruity pebbles (one of the hops but I don’t remember which), light grapefruit, and hay. Taste is grainy, hay, and some sweet fruit. Fizzy but clean mouthfeel. One of my favorite pilsners.

On tap at Flying Saucer. Has a golden color with a small white head. The aroma is light hops and grass. The taste is citrus and a dry finish. Not too much going on with this one.

Bottle. Golden color with a frothy white head that is lacing nicely as it diminishes. Aromas of bread dough-malt and a hops presence that is a little bit skunky. Flavor is fairly heavy for a pilsner... malt presence is big, and hops come through with a slightly lemon and peppery spicing to finish things off. Very nice and full pils.

Bottle. Faint malty aroma. mild flavour without much bitterness. Quick disappearing finish. Not what I’d expect in a pilsener. A bland, unoffensive session bier.

Well balanced, clean, refreshing. Its going down very easy this Wednesday evening. Hops up front and not too aggressive in the finish, which exactly what I feel like at this moment. Bit too dry. Overall a nice chillout while your working at home beer. Yeah.
