TheCametron (1332) - CZECH REPUBLIC - JUN 13, 2013
Bottle on the train from Munich to Prague. Picked up at the train station. It’s a typical pilsener. Fizzy, bitter and does a job.

uckelman (91) - Baden-Württemberg, GERMANY - JUN 8, 2013
Pours crystal clear, pale yellow. Small bubbles, quickly dissipating white head. Very slight musty aroma, otherwise no aroma at all. Sharp, almost a bit spicy. Mineral aftertaste. Not much happening here. Sticky on the finish.

sarauckelman (61) - Heidelberg, Baden-Württemberg, GERMANY - JUN 8, 2013
Absolutely typical pils in appearance: golden straw color, completely clear, light carbonation, small bubbles, moderate, lacy head. Smells a bit musty, a bit hoppy. Taste is very bitter, surprisingly so for a pils, more like an IPA. Aftertaste is harsh. Not very drinkable on its own, let’s hope it tastes better with pizza.

Within the pilsener category a very pleasant, light and refreshing but tasteful beer. Quite ideal for me.

Middle of the road pilsener. Nice hoppy bitterness and lingering palate. All else is normal pils....

Bottle, thanks to larsniclas. Clear golden beer with a very nice rich white head. Bready aroma, yeasty notes, grassy hops, floral notes, some grapes. Bready hop flavor, citrus, floral, grass, metal hops.

jkbier (63) - Rostock, GERMANY - MAR 28, 2013
Bottle. Grainy, grassy aroma. Pours clear golden with a large white head. Tastes somewhat of grapefruit with a sweet body. The malt kicks in pretty late and the finish is just slightly bitter. Decent carbonation but a bit watery. An underrated beer that is better than a lot of major brand pilsners.

Bottle. Pours a golden yellow with a white head. Aroma is grassy. Taste is grainy and grassy. Palate is too carbonated, quite light. Meh.
