Commercial Description:
A German-style pilsner, brewed with all German malts to provide an authentic malt profile for this beer. It is hopped with a combination of German noble hops during brewing, and then dry-hopped to increase the herbal flavor, without increasing the bitterness. It is lagered for at least 1 month after fermentation for a beautiful, smooth, and refreshing beer. Editor's Note: Formerly called Angry Angel German Pilsner.

Poured a clear gold that was slightly off-shade with a bit of brown to it. Heavy carbonation. Almost non-existent head. Nose was just some slight malts. Very biscuit flavor with just a slight hop presence. Bit of an off flavor too that came across as tin or aluminum. Not overly complex but nice and simple. Would be a great beer on a hot day. Mouthfeel was light but that metallic flavor was a bit of a turn off.

Draft at Outback. The waitress said this was a German Pilsener called Angry Angel, so I don’t know if I had this one or the Angry Angel Kolsh. Whatever it was, it looked pretty much like a Bud...straw yellow, white bubbly head. Nice bit of spice and hops on the nose. Quite tasty for a light pils...bready, hoppy, and touch of lemon. Finishes amazingly smooth for the style with non of that skunky aftertaste you can get with a lot of pils. I’m a fan.
