hazy pour of yellow with a small white head.
there’s something in the aroma that oddly smells like stale urine... once i get past that there are notes of grass, herbs, green apples, grain and peppery spice.
the flavor is quite pils-y... weird mix of the aroma with a touch of malty sweetness and some vegetal notes. a dry peppery finish with a mineral-y aftertaste make it very drinkable even though the body is a bit fuller than expected (or that i like in the style). 7/4/7/3/15/3.6

Does everything a pilsener should. Smells and tastes of grass, faint citrus, and mineral water. Reminds me of Germany. Nice job, 3F -- especially on the label! markas101 (645), Fargo, North Dakota, USA

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 1, 2010 22 oz. bottle shared by Tmoney99. Pours a clear light golden color with a small white head. The aroma is pretty mild, mainly grainy pale malt and light fruits. The flavor is grainy malt, light fruit, perhaps some earthy hop notes. This is from FFF right? I remember having trouble deciding what type of beer we were drinking. There wasn’t anything off with this, just nothing really going on. This would have to be listed as a disappointment.
nose of pils malt, leathery hop notes. flavors are grainy, leathery, sweet pils malt. solid pils. ajm (1037), Los Angeles, California, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Dec 28, 2009 Bottle from the brewery. I wish this had been fresher because this is very well made. Nose of spent grain, grass, lemon peel. Color was a hazy yellow gold. Flavor was clean, grassy, almost Saaz-like with a mineral, refreshing finish. Really my cup of tea. I hope Jinx Proof stays in business so this gets made again.
