Hoppiest lager I have ever had! Gold pour. Lots of hops in the aroma and in the flavor. citrus and floral. Pretty damn good.

From the pounder can. Pours a very light yellow. Light cereal aroma. Nice perfumery taste to it. A little dry and a little sweet. A really nice lager.

poisoneddwarf (1306) - Rathdrum, Idaho, USA - OCT 24, 2012
16 oz can. This one reads 5.1% ABV. Pours cloudy yellow (looks like a kellerbier) with a large white soapy head with good retention; leaves some sheeting lacework. Aroma is corny, grainy, floral. Taste starts out lightly sweet before a crushing bitterness sets in. Definitely the most bitter pils I’ve had. There’s also an unwelcome flavor of wet dog in there. Highly carbonated, medium-full body. Crisp and refreshing, but a little flawed.

hawthorne00 (1853) - Melbourne, AUSTRALIA - MAR 2, 2013
Can, 10C. Very pale yellow gold with a modest white head that fades a fair bit. Aroma of lemon, grass, grain. Light bodied, quite high carbonation. Grainy sweetness is restrained and almost austere, bitterness quite high with grass, lemon and a little pepper. Doesn’t taste quite like a Czech beer, but tastes for a change like whoever made it actually likes pilsener. Good stuff.

On draught at Hopworks. Light golden in color, with a surprising malted biscuit flavor.

neepsntatties (883) - Portland, Oregon, USA - NOV 11, 2009
On tap at H.U.B. Colour... as light as a light beer and no head at all. Nose... flowery and quite pils-like. Palate... definite Saaz hops up front, tingly CO2, tangy, lightly floral, cut grass, hay and a slightly grainy finish. Wish I would’ve had this over the summer!

bhensonb (8954) - Woodland, California, USA - DEC 19, 2012
Can from Made in Oregon. Pours darkish gold with a transient white head. Aroma of bready malt and fruity hop. Med body. Chewy carb. Flavor is bready malt and lightly spicy. A little earthy. Very nice pilsner. Bitter enough for me.
