I like my pilsners with a daunting head and this just ain’t it - boring yellow and a hint of peach fuzz on top. Aroma is light grain with a hint of citrus and alcohol. Very little flavour - it doesn’t get in the way of the fine mouthfeel and texture: a crisp, dry finish leaving a pleasant aftertaste of grains. Very drinkable, but missing a few key elements for a pilsner.

Mild bread aroma. Golden yellow. Somewhat sour with a a hint of roasted malt. Mild bitterness that cleans up in the finish. Highly carbonated. Not a super brew but it does the job.

Reminds me of Euro-trash. Very common and I bet there are a lot of D-bags that say they like it because it seems "hip". Nothing special about this Pilsner. Is the color of urine, and taste really weak. Not much else to say.

Thanks to Sean for this. Somewhat dry with grassy hops. Some mineral aroma and taste. Decent stuff. Some of the slightly sulphur-y aroma that alot of German lagers have. Serving: Bottle

teddybeer (569) - Madrid, SPAIN - DEC 18, 2011
33cl bottle. Pale golden beer with a good formation of white head, moderate lasting. Aroma is to fresh hops and malty. Flavour is as a classic pils, hoppy, malty and moderate sweet. The final is slightly bittery. Carbonation is medium. Body is light to medium.

ClubGonzo (1732) - Bergen, NORWAY - DEC 14, 2011
On tap at the Alexanderplatz, Berlin S-bahn "station bar" that I can’t remember the name of. Clear pale gold body, small white head. Nose is pale malts, corn and hints of dry hops. Taste is more crisp hops - this is quite "dry" actually - with pale malts and hints of corn again. A pretty typical, though somewhat dry German pilsener.

cheapdark (2809) - Quiptown & Central Valley, Pennsylvania, USA - DEC 14, 2011
Clear pale yellow from a bottle. Slight metallic aroma. Very little head. First taste is quite old world pilsner; the old country. Not really over the top at first but as you slug it becomes more bitter. Not 2 much co2. Fairly sharp bitter pilsner finish.

Pours pale yellow with a short lived white head.The aroma was a generic grassy pale lager sent.The flavor was a bland sour taste.The body was thin with a sour funk aftertaste.Overall a bad beer.
