Commercial Description:
Crisp and refreshing, this classic Bohemian brings noble hops and traditional German maltiness in perfect union before another healthy dose of imported hops tips the scale toward a decidedly hoppy finish.

Tap at the brewpub. Very pale straw coloured beer. Aroma is kind of light. Flavour is pretty nice though. Crisp floral hoppiness over a crisp pale pils malts. Not grassy at all, just fresh crisp and dry on the back with a definite herbal character. Nice pils.

One of my favorite pilsners, I love the hop nose in this beer and I love getting this beer on draught from the brewery. Not sure if its true or not but I heard the brewery stopped bottling this one and it is only offered on tap.

From bottle, poured gold, not too light. Lots of head that stuck around forever. Musty aroma. Flavor was nice and slight, but a tad too bitter for what I expected. Went down smooth. I’d like to try this again just to see if my bottle might not have been beat.

June 2007 - Beer pours darker than the typical pilsner with moderate head and little lacing. Weak aroma of sweet pilsner malts. Flavor was mostly sweet pilsner malts and some mild bittering hops, but none of that grassy type aroma I like in a good pilsner. Very bland...almost like they wanted a beer to give the people who ask, "What do you have that’s like BUD?"

Poured a nice golden with a white head. Very smooth and malty. Was really surprised with the flavor, which was better than other pilsners I have tried.
