COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Like a plunge down a hair-raising stretch of white water, this beer will leave you refreshed and wanting more. Premium German pilsner malt and select hop varieties are the hallmark of this delicate golden lager. A month of cold fermentation and aging creates a smooth character that's light on the palate yet satisfying.

Clear gold with a bit of white head. A clasic pils; clean with hints of fruits. Refreshing and I don’t generally like pilsners...I would say it rivals or surpasses those I had in Czech!

Hazy straw. Husky palate. Not much aroma. Grainy, corn-tasting faux-macro. I moved on quickly from this one.

Draft at brewpub. Pours golden with a slight cereal note on the aroma. Creamy smooth taste. It’s quite refreshing without actually tasting like anything.

Yellow with creamy white head and lace. Light paper and a dry corn. Flavor of paper, light malt, and a light bitter. A tad thin and fizzy

on tap-pours a white head and yellow color. Aroma is soft sweet grain, some grassy. Taste is sweet grain-honey, secondary grassy hops bite. Fizzy.

Reviewed from notes. On tap at the brewpub in August 2009. Pours a very clear yellow-straw color with a white head that quickly recedes and does not really leave behind any lacing. The nose is light grain and a bit of corn. The flavor is quite plain with slight grain and some vegetal flavors. Mouthfeel is really thin and a bit watery. Drinks fairly poorly and was not all that good. Serving type: on-tap Reviewed on: 11-08-2010

Rockcrawler (196) - Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA - SEP 12, 2010
Sampled, pours a clear straw color with very light head and aroma of bread and slight hay. Taste follows the aroma with a very lagerish type taste i cant quite describe. A very good example of a malty light lager.

Clear light yellow with no head. Faint malty bready aroma and taste with a clean finish.
