A step up from macro pale lagers, but still left pretty wanting. Some corn and grass on the nose, fizzy body. Corn, syrup and a mild hop finish. Pretty run of the mill considering their other offerings.

Served as August Pilsner in 2008. Might be different now. Gold color with a bit of orange. Tall, white head. Very cloudy. Aroma with strong malt and fairly strong hops as well. Slightly sweet, with butter, yeast. Very rich, unfiltered Pilsner aroma. Strong malt flavor, with tons of hops. Slightly sweet, with great balance. A touch sour, but great hops for what is basically a bohemian style Pilsner. Strong hoppy finish, rather long-lasting. Strong hops for a pills. Medium body and carbonation. A little bit of fruit, this gate, and a touch of spice. Very rich, malty, hoppy Pilsner.

Draught at Popeye. Clear yellow - white head. Zesty, cardboard, light hoppy, metallic, fulll of faults, soapy, messy, sulfor, fart, honey.
