COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Brewed in the tradition of German Pilseners, it is crisp with a delicate malt flavour and a lingering bitter finish.

UPDATED: JAN 6, 2005 crackery, grainy malt to begin with, joined by enormous round saaz flavour that devours all in its path and burps out pure alpha acid when it’s finished. rer8: this tastes more like an APA than a pilsener but i don’t care.

At AIBA 2003. Nice light gold colour with a big head. Lemon and orange fragrance which carries over into the taste. Has a little bit of spice in the finish, which I think was a distraction.

duff (5483) - St, Margarets, Greater London, ENGLAND - JUN 2, 2002
UPDATED: MAY 13, 2003 An excellent pilsener, very fresh floral, hoppy and spicy, with some delicious pale malts, soft and round and entirely diggable.

The more times I try this, the more I like it. Probably one of the best pilseners anywhere in the world. Fantastic golden-yellow colour. Nice flowery hop aroma. Dry, crisp pils flavour with a nice bite. New Belgium’s Blue Paddle and Victory’s Prima Pils come to mind when drinking this beer.
