Thanks to Secret Santa for this one! Poured into a Pilsner glass, this produced a tall head of white that stayed for a considerable time, fed from below by multiple microscopic bubble streams through a clear golden beer. Malty aroma that carries some bread and honey and flowery hops. Smooth and sweet in the beginning to end a bit dry with some nice hop bitterness to it. Very nice.

Pours transparent amber with a large white head that fades to a medium head. Aroma is of soft slightly grassy, floral hops and pale malt. Flavor is soft floral hops, a mild light fruitiness, some raw grain, and a smooth clean malt. Finish carries in a bit of bitter grassyness. Very full pilsner and very drinkable. The fruit, bitter floral hopiness, and delicate pale malts layer on each other very well.

Old Dominion Brew Fest 2005. Dam, not you’re average Pilsner. Tons of fruit tons, especially Apricots. Nicely done.

I was mostly impressed by the body of this pilsenser (and I’m usually much more interested in the mind...) - Full and thick with pale malts, but never becoming overly sweet or sticky. Great dusty/grassy hops in the aroma and finish. Golden bubbly, big pillowy head, good lacing. Nice grassy finish. Purchased at Whole Foods near D.C. near my cousin David’s place.

Light yellow body with a big white head. Aroma is herbal and sweet, with some grassy hop notes. Flavor is sweet and dry with a nice hop presence, some straw and grass character. Dry, tart finish. Good beer.

a decent pilsner with a golden color and nice white head. I was very malty and slighty dry but over all nothing too great about it. Very drinkable but not much else.

22oz bottle-pours pale yellow with a fizzy white head. Here we go again, the infamous Legend diacytl note coming from the glass even before i put it to my nose. some spicy presences in there-haygrass and german hops. the flavors again are less diacytl than the aroma, but still, its there. some good spicy notes in the finish that cut through the diacytl. Sorry kinz!

Golden body with a minimal, dusty head. Intense buttery nose. I would dip some lobster in this if I had some. Flavor is of butter and pale malt. Another bottle of bad beer from Legend. I’ve been very unimpressed and disappointed by the 3 samples I’ve had from this brewery.
