This is how you do a Pils! Bready malt profile. Grainy aroma. Lemon zest. Gooseberries. Biscuity malt. Super clean. Unpasteurised goodness. Get in.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up from All Good Beer HD. Pours clear gold with a frothy, white head. Light-medium sweet flavour with notes of crisp pale bread, nips of ripening citrus, light bitter citrus rind, bread crust. Light bodied with average carbonation. Finishes with more citric hops, lemon rind, crusty pale bread, straw. Drinks fine overall.

Can at home, thanks to Dave, 01/11/20. Clear golden blonde with a decent off white cap. Nose is pale malts, cereals, grains, light bread dough. Taste comprises grass, cereals, grains, toasted malts, lemon drizzle. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close splashed with dusty hop bitterness. Decent enough pils.
