2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 TaxiDriver (1372) - Stadland, GERMANY - APR 8, 2009
Bottle. A light hoppy smell, light malty, nice aroma. The head is white, large and creamy, the duration is medium. The body is clear and yellow. The taste is surprisingly bitter, the duration is long. The body is light to medium and creamy-dry, the carbonation is normal. Overall a nice Pils, rather bitter one.

Bottle. Looks like a pilsner. Not much head unless poured aggressively. Perhaps more pale than some. Grassy hop nose with a bit more grain/malt aromas than is typical. A bit metallic, and even more so on the tongue. Not amazing but very drinkable.

Pale yellow, medium/large head. "Eggshell" aroma and flavor. Not bad but mediocre pils as far as I’m concerned. Too bad. The search for best pilsner in the world continues...
2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20 Elwood (1834) - Between a rock and a hard place, Virginia, USA - MAR 6, 2009
11.2 oz bottle. Pours very pale yellow with a fluffy white head. Not much in the way of lacing. Definite corn and biscuit notes on the nose with a little skunkiness. Medium carbonation. Forward bitterness on the palate. A little malt flavor, with corn, and spent malt notes. Clean finish with some lingering bitterness. Watery mouthfeel. Overall it reminded me of a cheap hooker trying to look expensive. There are much better examples of a pilsner out there.
3.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 ruggedman (643) - Portland, Maine, USA - FEB 17, 2009
On tap at Novare Res.
Pours a golden yellow with a big white head. Sometimes simplicity is beauty. Aroma is slightly sweet, almost grassy. Flavor is nice clean, almost stingy on the tongue. A hint of corn and other grains.
3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 marctacoma (35) - Fircrest, Washington, USA - FEB 15, 2009
Pours clean, clear gold. Darker than some (Bitburger, for example), and there’s more going on here.
Nice example of the style... nothing amazing, but it’s a pilsner, for f$cks sake. Enjoyed this; could’ve had 8-10 more.
2.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20 Block (850) - West Lafayette, Indiana, USA - JAN 21, 2009
Gold pour with a large frothy white head. Aroma of sweet malts. Flavor is mostly malt with some bitterness and alcohol. Very yeasty finish.

I like dry, maly Pilseners: Pilseners like Eku Pils are so cool. Flavoursome and drinkable This is bready.Its dry,spicy and deep .. pineapple esters ,with smokey stuff. Quality,swillable Pils.
