Nov 12, 2009 Pours deep amber with a tall white head. Arome is very malty with a hint of Sazz aroma. Flavour is very fresh, but still a bit too malty for a pilsner. Not a bad beer but a poor pilsner in my opinion.

Nov 8, 2009 Very pleasant malt aroma but it could be a lot stronger. Pilsners are always pretty sad looking but this one is fairly dark and looks like it’s sun-tanned somehow. The malt flavour also has that slow burnt aroma and taste going on, its nice and slow. Hops come on quite strongly at the end, could use just a few more % to match ;) Drinking this reminds me of sitting down in the shade after a hot, dry, dusty day of intense sweating labour and drinking your first sip of I’m done working for today beer. It even has the sun burnt aroma.

Oct 25, 2009 A light pilsner that leaves you wanting for something of more substance. Thin, watery lacing that drains into a very light amber hue that is reminiscent of of any light lager from a macro-brewery. Aroma is one of chemically altered hops and the bitter swallow can be a bit skunky.

Sep 30, 2009 Bottle: I was surprised how good this was. Nice spicy, floral notes. Nice and refreshing. It went very well with the food I was having (vegetarian fare at a restaurant near Washington Square park, manhattan).
While I’m sure there are better pils out there, I haven’t had one yet.

Sep 25, 2009 Got something on tap they called ’Brooklyn special pilsner,’ so not sure if it’s the same. The aforementioned, however, is very impressive. A lager with mild but distinct characters of a British extra special bitter. IMHO, the best pilsner I’ve had.

Sep 2, 2009 Bright hazy yellow look. Minimal lace. Actually looks more like a Belgian white than anything. Bright and sunny.
The smell is spicy, bitter beechwood/noble hops. The malt is of a sharp, bitter nature. Leafy, woodsy aroma. Hint of chlorine in the hops.
The taste is flowery bitter hops, floating atop the lagery malt. A bit sharp in both the hop and the malt. Sharp, pilsnery taste (naturally). Actually becomes more like a light (Bud) lager as it warms.
Feels creamy at first but finishes clearn. Watery and thin, though bubbly on the swallow. Reveals itself as a lesser brew as it warms. A bitter lager that is decent but disappointing.
