From the bottle poured a very beautiful golden brew that produced a very thick, foamy head. The aroma was well balanced. The taste was light with well balanced malt and hops. As with all Pilseners, it was light and fresh and IMO best served very cold.

some corn and malt flavor with a bitter finish. mild sweetness and aromatic an adequate pilsener in my estimation. good smooth carbonation that is vibrant. i was mildly impressed.

Tampa, Fl - Total Wine - I pt .9 fl oz can. Pours a light-medium golden with a silkly snow white head - brief lacing. Patented saaz hop aroma, bit of skunk - but not off-putting. Flavor has some honey sweetness, some grassiness, a brief nutty back end. Mouthfeel is thick enough. Better than expected, and refreshing after a long drive.

my ofh my what a sweet pilsner, color kinda light amber gold with snow like white head smells of belgium country side hay grass super summer taste is hay with grass and it tastes like there is a big spoonful of sugar in there too it threw me off at first but then i rather enjoyed it left a good full sweet after taste in my mouth banging beer marten

Bière blonde de 4.8 %. Beau col au versement, odorat céréalier, mais avec tendance de bière commerciale. Elle possède un goût sucré et simple. Petit arrière-goût amer, mais correct.

Pours a clear pale yellow with a white head. Aroma of pale malt. Taste us sweet with a peppery bite at the finished followed by a not so good earthy note at the end.

Aromas is grains and beery. The flavor is similar to the aroma along with a crisp, mildly hoppy finish. Decent enough.

Canned. Called premium pilsner, but it is 4.8% as per the) listing. Deep gold color with a bright white head. Doughy and grainy nose with some floral hints. This smells rich and sweet. This tastes like boiled sweet potatoes and dough. Notes of flowers present. A decent canned brew. Light and inoffensive.

Pours perfectly pale with a tight white head and nice lacing on the glass.

The aroma strikes a balance between that terrible breakfast cereal malt and some nice bright malt. It’s got some mild herbal hops in there as well.

The flavor isn’t bad, it retains some decent herbal character. There is some defendant tinniness to it & more breakfast cereal than I would prefer. There is however some decent bright maltiness. Certainly one of the best Belgian interpretations of pale lager I’ve had.

Palate is lively and sharp.

Can. Pours gold with a large white head. Slightly sweet aroma with grain and grassy notes. Slightly sweet malt/grain flavor with some light grassy bitterness. Not too bad for the style.
