COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Premium pale beer, similar to the Bohemian pilsner style, but sweeter and heavier in body. The taste is more malty and less hoppy with smooth undertones. This recipe is near and dear to the Brewer's heart, it was his father's recipe, a 1950 Coal miner from West Virginia. It has been changed ever so slightly to meet today's standard of brewing.

Terminus (2538) - Las Cruces, New Mexico, USA - APR 28, 2003
ahh, yes, the classic pilsner. This is a more malty beer of the style as the desription says. also, the grassy-ness is also very strong, almost too strong. nonetheless, this would make a great beer on a hot Wisconsin july day!

Straw color with a slight haze. Thick, lasting cream colored head. Decent lace. Slight dms in aroma. Not as clean as the other brews sampled. Stale malt flavors. Slightly acidic finish.
