This bottled brew poured a large sized head of frothy of unnoted size long lasting white colored bubbles that left behind an unnoted lacing. The body contained soft carbonation, was hazy and yellow in color. Its aroma contained notes of mild dirty sock off smelling . Its mouth feel is initially tingly bubbly and off with a strange malty dirty sock finish. Its flavor contained malty dirty sock notes. Not one I would buy again.

From notes: Pours out a decent light straw color wihth a decent sized frothy head. Typical hop aroma of a pils and a decent taste. About the middle of the road as far as a pils goes, slightly more bitter than it should have been

Light color, but atypically dark for a pilsner, which sometimes border on water-clear. Lightly fruity aroma. Overzealous foamy head tries to eat your face, even on a careful pour. Taste is overly metallic and sour. Pilsners are bitter as a rule, but this is a little too puckeringly bitter for a style that is supposed to be so light. Better than macro-swill, but not as elegant as premium pilsner.

Bottle. Medium frothy white head that was mostly lasting, decent lacing, carbonated, slightly hazy, and a yellow hue. Malty, hoppy and a sweaty sock aroma. Not very inticing. Bitter and hoppy flavor. Tingly, bitter, hoppy palate. Light-medium body.

Bottle: poured a big ol’ glass of white fluffy head. 4 fingers deep. Golden yellow body. Light hop aroma. Initial sip is metallic yet hoppy. Very carbonated. Light lemon with a flat finish. Decent.
