Pours light yellow with a white, fine head. Aroma is sweet and grassy. Flavor is sweet, grassy, with a minor hop bitterness. Moderate mouth feel. very good.

Jul 10, 2008 pours light golden color with quickly disappearing head. scent is of amonia and some smelly feet. taste is a little better, but still has some stale taste to it. Maybe it was an old bottle, but either way, it didn’t taste very pleasent. I wouldn’t purchase this again.

Jul 10, 2008 pour is light golden with little head. Aroma is a little ass like but the flavor is very sweet and smooth. Very little hop character. Decent or a pils. Probably won’t buy again however.

Jul 9, 2008 Color of straw with a thin white head. Lactic malty aroma with a hint of fruit. Taste of cereal malt, some tartness, spice and mild floral notes. It has a bit of the Saaz hoppiness I associate with a Bohemian Pilsner like Pilsner Urquell but muted. A bit of minerals on the finish along with some caramel and brisk carbonation. Seems more a Vienna than a German Pils but I ain’t complaining and I dig the old-timey art deco label.

Jun 29, 2008 Darker than what I think of as a pilsener. Full mouthfeel, aroma and taste of spicy Euro hops. Definite twang on tongue during sample. I’d give this to anyone asking for a crisp lager.

Jun 28, 2008 Bottled. Pilsnener? Who got to vote on that classification? Not even remotely a pils IMHO. Maybe more true to the Vienna style? Cloudy appearance, very malty and no real hop character at all. Not a bad beer, but weird to call this a classic German pils.
