2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Draught, Diamond Knot
Bright golden colour with thin white head. Sweet, fresh malt character. Only a hint of fruity hoppiness. Low bitterness. Fairly quick finish. An odd interpretation. I’m more of a Pickla Pils kind of guy.
3.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bomber from Liquid Solutions. Bready aroma backed by noble hop. Tarnished golden color with a white head that collapsed quickly. Medium body with light creamy carbonation. The flavor is a bit biscuit/butterscotch with nice noble/grassy hop. It has substance. It is not a wimpy, watery pils. The finish is a butterscotch note with an appropriate amount of hop. This is a unique product.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
22oz bottle acquired in trade with Larry_Pitonka (thanks!). Poured a lighter and hazy yellow color with a smaller sized white head. Aromas of grass, spicey, lemons, and I was getting some honey comb. Tastes of grass, spicey, and some graininess. The aroma was on the ’sweet’ side which did not come through in the tastes.
2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 8/20
Tap at GCBF. Incredibly pale straw colour. Looks like a cider. Light spicy aroma along with a very fresh malt character. Grass/hay aroma as well. Flavour is fairly thin, low bitterness but has a light spicy finish. No flaws, just not enough flavour to really recommend it.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Pours a very pale champagne golden with a spotty-lacing wispy white head. Lightly sweet, pale malty nose has a hint of noble hops. Body starts semi-sweet with a mild citrusy hoppy character toward an effervescent very mild finish. Doesn’t seem all that true to style and seems more like a pale lager. Needs more body and bigger Saaz hoppy character.
2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottle shared by jbye4334. Pours clear pale yellow with a medium-low white head, low retention. Aroma is moderate to high vegetal malt with DMS notes and light, spicy hops. Flavor is light to medium-light malt, little to no hop bitterness, DMS, and astringent. Light bodied, moderate carbonation.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle: Hazy yellow, white head, nice lacing. Retentive! Nose is nicely malty with light hops. The flavor is thin, lightly sweet with nice hop bitterness. Could use a touch more bittering though, I like my pilsners crispy. A light tinny character that shows up like the absence of biscuity character. Better than the average American lager.
