Not much aroma. Little thin on color but makes it up on taste. I really like the taste of this beer. It goes very well here in texas on a hot day.

sweet malty aroma. golden color with a small white head. grainy, sweet, kind of chewy palate. finishes quick, clean, and dry with barely a hint of hops. similar to the blue star with less hop character.

Tap. This is not your typical pilsener. It is not nearly as musty as the typical German or Czech variety. The body seems fuller, the flavors are more fruity and the beer is very refreshing and fizzy. I really like this one. There is not much of an aroma though, neither does it develop a ncie head, so thes eare minus points.

For a pilsener i found this rather enjoyable. Had more texture then most pilsners. Was smooth and easy drinking but no taste really stood out at me. maybe a bit of a sweet taste.

Bottle from Harris in Brooklyn. I hate this style but like this beer. Does that make me weird. This was all there was to drink but I didn’t even notice it was a pilsner until I got here. The skunkiness I have tasted in this style before was gone and the crips, clean, fresh tastes were all there. Would be great on a summer afternoon.

This beer is good and yellow in color with some head. The aroma is sweet but not strong. The taste was mildly fruity and very refreshing. A surprising pils.

Bottle. Pours pretty much like you would think it should, pale yellow with a white foamy head. Leading the aroma was a funky sourness followed by sweet corn and mild hops. The taste, thankfully, did not have any of the sour notes in the aroma but was a bit bland with very mild hopping. If it were not for the aroma I might have rated this higher.

Bottle: Smells hoppy and malty with a hint of yeast and dough. Poured yellowish color. Slightly cloudy. Small white head. Very small lacing. Flavor of banana, corriander, and honey. Light body. Thin texture. Fizzy carbination. Bitter, slightly dry finish. A bit musty. Overall a mediocre pils, but drinkable.
