COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This continental lager has a deep golden hue, a giant rocky white head and a malty sweet nose. The first taste is sweet, but leads to a dry, hoppy bitter finish in the German Style. Mill Street Organic Pilsner is an excellent accompaniment to food or an excellent thirst quencher on its own.

355ml bottle. Pours a deep gold with one finger of short lived, foamy white head. Smells of sweet, light fruit and some floral hops. Taste is sweet malt and some floral notes with a decent hop bite on the finish. Palate was a little more watery that I’d prefer. Overall, not bad, but a little too sweet and thin. Not the best Mill St. available.

Not a bad rendition of the style. Bit sweeter than I’d expect, and the pilsner bite is less pronounced than in some of the classics I’ve tried. Still, I enjoyed the up front and through the middle sweetness, and the dry, hoppier finish as well. Medium carbonation, very light in the mouth. Great patio thirst quencher.

Boutip (3294) - Gatineau, Quebec, CANADA - JUL 12, 2011
Bottle: Poured a bright golden color pilsner with a medium size foamy head with OK retention and minimal lacing. Aroma consists of lightly sweet malt base with some very subtle floral notes. Taste is also dominated by lightly sweet malt with some very subtle floral notes. Hops presence was very light and almost discernable. Body is a bit fuller then average with good carbonation. Not bad overall but too sweet for my taste buds.

Bouteille 355ml. De couleur dorée et claire. Nez de grains de malt sucrés et frais, moyen de fruits (agrumes), léger de biscuits et de pain frais avec des notes de houblon herbeux. Moyenne-mince en bouche avec un pétillement moyen-fort et une texture aux faibles notes huileuses. Léger goût fruité (agrumes) accompagné d’un goût de grains de malt pâle sucrés lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un moyen goût de pain et des notes de biscuits sucrés puis en finale l’on retrouve une légère amertume de houblon herbeux (herbes mouillées et herbes fraîches) aux notes florales avec de faibles traces de noix. Post-goût moyen et aux notes sèches, légèrement amer de houblon herbeux aux notes florales avec des traces de fruits (zest d’agrumes).

bottle. Golden colour. Aroma of malts, some light fruitiness. Taste is more sweet malts than hops. Didn’t taste much like a pilsner but I enjoyed it nonetheless.

yarry (451) - Waterdown, Ontario, CANADA - JUN 24, 2011
355ml bottle, 5.2% a/v Pours a deep gold color, with a very malty aroma, very biscuity to my nose. Surprised there is not much more hops on it. The taste is also very malty for a pils, kind of surprising really. Mouthfeel is decent and full, and the hops finally show up on the palate after awhile. Not sure if this beer is really a pils to be honest.

neuromatt (610) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - MAY 31, 2011
On tap at the brewpub, served in a lager glass. Pours clear golden with a small white head. The head fades slowly to a thin cover. On the nose, there are notes of noble hops, citrus, crystal malts and a touch of pine. The flavour is clean and moderately sweet with crystal malts and a slight bitter accent. The malts are slightly toasty throughout. The finish is moderate in length and malty. On the palate, it is medium in body with a smooth, watery texture and soft carbonation. Overall, this is a fairly simple pilsner. Decent, but not terribly interesting. 2011-05-29
