2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Dark gold, clear, and no head. Smells like corn, grass and lightly skunked. Taste is pretty much the same - corn, grass, skunk. A little bit of a hop bite at the end.
2.9 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Poured from a 11.2 ounce bottle (yah, where’d that .8 ounce go?) into a pilsner glass with a chipped foot, by the way. This has become a favorite bier of mein with a handful of sourdough pretzels and a dab of dark ground mustard. A true quencher o’ thirst, this.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
#242
Zwar kein Bierkönig, weil dafür zu schwach im Charakter, dafür ein guter Begleiter an einem Samstagabend. Frisch vom Faß und gut gekühlt - eine Augenweide! Der Antrunk ist frisch und gut gehopft, der Körper mittelprächtig, erst der Abgang zeigt Schwächen - der ist mehr als verhalten... Dafür gibbet Abzüge in der B-Note, aber am guten Gesamteindruck ändert sich wenig.

Lahev ( REAL, Bamberk) - Světlá barva, lehce nahořklé a dobře pitelné pivo, takovej klasickej německej pilsner.

4.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 19/20
Konig Pilsner has a thick, soapy, white head, and a somewhat hazy yellow straw appearance, with lots of little white floating particles visible throughout the beer. A few streaming bubbles are seen, and a good amount of lacing is left on the glass. The aroma is faint, but one can detect some lightly-roasted malt. Taste is of sweet biscuit, lightly-roasted malt, sweetness, and it closes with an outstanding, grassy hop bitterness. Mouthfeel is light to medium, and Konig Pilsener finishes crisp, clean, refreshing, and mostly dry. This not a perfect beer, but it is not far from it. I insist that you try it! RJT
