Brewed by Buckeye Brewing Company
Style: Classic German Pilsener
Lakewood, Ohio USA

Serve in Flute, Footed Pilsner

Sample at Buckeye Beer Engine. Clearish yellow pour with a big white head. Malty aroma with a bit of hop and lemongrass. Mostly malt flavor with hints of lemongrass and apricot and some bitter hops in the finish.

On tap at The Beer Engine. Pours clear yellow with a thin white head. The nose is citrus zest and light malt. The taste is similar to the aroma with some light citrus hops in the finish. Medium bodied. Nothing special, but not bad.

In short: A german pilsner with a fruity pineapples twist. Very nice session beer.
How: Tap at brewpub
The look: Clear blonde body with a medium white head leaving goof lacings.
In long: Pillowy body. Malt profile is white bread, wheat and a little honey. Then comes some dry grass, some floral notes, mild bitterness. An overall pineapples flavour from beginning to end. The wheat, grass and floral aspects really took me to a countryside field. All in all a very flavourful refreshing beer that will take you to a countryside field an make you forget about the gloomy aspects city life, and trust me in Cleveland you’ll really need it.

Must say I was most impressed with this one, a very well done German style pilsner. I had it on draft at the Beer Engine. Poured a very pale straw color with a big, creamy head and very good carbonation. The taste was right on for the style, it reminded me a lot of the pilsners I had last time I visited Deutschland.

Pours a clear golden color with a pillowy bleached white head. Sharp scents of noble hops and husky grain. Flavors snap the tongue with prickly hoppiness and firm malt notes. Quite drinkable and the perfect nominee for a huge dimpled German mass.
