Jan 16, 2007 Clear golden color with a medium sized fluffy white head. Aroma has lots of grass and some sweet malts. Bready, malty flavor followed by a crisp hop finish. Very nice.

Nov 17, 2006 It’d be nice if we could land this beer a bit more frequently in the Bay Area. Aroma is grassy and a bit metallic (think a dirty nickel). Appearance was clear, yellow in color with a very nice head with good lacing. Mouthfeel was a little lazy as it didn’t have that feel a good pilsner has. Flavor had a definite hoppy character to it with a satisfying finish. Overall a decent German pils. I’d imagine this would be even better fresh.

Jul 29, 2006 From a 500 ml. brown euro bottle with a freshness date on the back label, 01.01.05. This pilsener actually held up pretty well.
Poured a clear yellowish golden with a foamy white that settled into a thin sudsy lacing.
Aromas of sweet grains and biscuits, lemon honey, floral and spicy hops.
Medium carbonation and a crisp, smooth pilsener light bodied mouthfeel.
Delicious tasting, sweet honey breads, lemon grassy, peppery and spicy herbal hops and a dry grainy, spicy and lemon grassy finish, very good drinkability.
On a hot midwestern summer day this is highly quaffable, I would like to find a fresher bottle of this, I have the feeling it is even more tasty when you get it before it’s freshness date has expired. Purchased at the Friar Tuck in Springfield, Illinois.

Jul 13, 2006 Nice pour, a lively golden body with a sustained creamy head that does some lasting lacing. The aroma is that of fresh bread artfully blended with a grassy bitterness. The nose follows into the mouth ( ?!), finishing on a mildly bitter note. Good stuff. <font size=-4><a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/Places/ShowPlace.asp?PlaceID=417> Friar Tuck Wines, Sprirts, & Beverages, Peoria, IL<font size=-1>

Jan 12, 2006 Lightly hazed light golden color. tall milky white head. Grassy hops with a pils malt backdrop. Had hoped for a more noble nose. Soft malt flavors abound. Very mild herbal hops and a nice light bite in the finish coupled with a light pale malt linger. The temperatures hit the 50s today and already I am looking forward to Pils season. If this is global warming, bring it on!

Dec 22, 2005 This German Pilsner pours an orange gold color from a 500ml bottle. Huge sized white foamy head, long lasting with good lacing. Aroma is grainy and grassy, touch of sweetness. A medium to full bodied pilsner. Malts are grainy and grassy, slightly sweet. Somewhat spicy hops. Smooth taste. Kind of full tasting for a pilsner, it lacks that crisp and clean dryness that one would expect of a pilsner, but it has a nice hop bite at the finish to compensate. Clean and refreshing. This is a nice Pilsner. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and dry. Aftertaste is slightly bitter and slightly hoppy.
