Growler bought at The Greeks in Narberth. Light brown color is darker than most other Pilsners I've had and I've had a lot. Bready sweet aroma. Mouthfeel is maltier than other Pilsners and sweeter too. I prefer dry snappy ones. Overall a very good beer. I'd put it a tad bit towards a light bock or Munich lager than a straight pilsner, but its very good. A great beer to get your friends hooked on craft beer!

Starts with nice pilsener malt sweetness, a little grain, and a nice punch of hops flavor. Finishes smooth with nice bitterness. A refreshing lager.

UPDATED: OCT 6, 2012
Location: Draft at HopsScotch, 10/5/12
Aroma: The aroma has some pilner malts, grains, and some nice, grassy hops
Appearance: It pours an unclear orange color with a white head and fairly heavy lace
Flavor: The taste is lightly sweet, grainy and grassy, and has a medium hop bitterness
Palate: The body of this beer is medium, it has a good drinkability, and a dry finish to it
Overall Impression:
I thought that this one was a fairly dry/bitter example of the style. It almost felt a little APA-like, though there’s definitely some Pilsner feel to it as well. At 4.4% it is extremely sessionable, and I thought it was pretty good as well. I’ll look out for more stuff from Neshaminy Creek.

Draft at Prohibition Taproom in Philadelphia, PA.
Pours a cloudy golden yellow color with lighter edges and a two finger, frothy white head that has great retention, slowly fading into a lasting ring. Chunks of soapy lace left behind.
Inviting aroma with a nice balance of pale malts, light fruit and earthy hop notes. Strong spicy hop presence with hints of grass and straw countered by bready yeast, biscuit, apple and pear.
Fuller bodied than expected with a crisp, spicy hop bite that lingers over the earthy and sweeter notes into a dry finish. This provides some dry bitterness that compliments the earthy grass and straw flavors without overpowering everything else. Really well balanced with a nice malt backbone that counters the hops and light fruit notes. Hints of bread and biscuit as well as some apple and pear sweetness toward the finish.
