Pale and clear, fruity aroma.Hoppy. Not special, but an allright pilsener from the monastery which has some other quite impressive beers to offer.

Golden color, slightly hazy. Two months past best before date. Sweet apple and vinegar aroma. Hoppy flavor with a slight smokiness and sweet apples. A-typical pils, also probably past its peak. Still decent and full of flavor.
