2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Pours a nice light golden yellow. Aromas of hops, grass, and maybe malt. Taste is crisp with a nice mellow hop flavor.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pours pale golden with a decent head that reduces to a fine lasting lace. Aromas of citrus and herbs. Full nectar with good carbonation. Malty and finely bittered. This is a classic specimen with a long fruity finish.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle at The Ship & Mitre pub beer festival, Liverpool. Pale gold, thin white head. Bit of lager hops on aroma. Rather a good crisp finish, bit of lemon. It’s a pretty good pils. Crisp, refreshing and drinkable. Does what a pils should do with enough on finish to give it character.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Pours a clear gold with a white head. The aroma is very mildly hoppy. The straw malt is there, but a little thin and watery. The better pilsners tend to be malty in their own way and this one isn’t.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pours golden with a big white head. Lightly hoppy aroma and a light sweet dry taste. Light body and a bitter dry finish. Not bad.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Very clear golden beeer below a big white head. Clean taste, I might, like more on a warmer summer day.
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Tap at Sugar Lounge: Golden pour with great clarity and topped by a dense white foam. Slightly sweet pale malt aroma. Crisp texture. The flavor has a clean malt character, it’s slightly doughy, but evidently German.The hop presence is dry-ish and grassy. When it warms there’s an almost nutty touch. Simple, but quaffable and balanced.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
12oz bottle: Another decent lager from the dollar bin. Pours a clear honey gold with a hint of red and a nice white cap. The nose is simple with balanced but soft grassy hops and buttery malts. The body continues this way and drinks nice and smooth. Bread and caramel notes emerge on the back of the tongue as a light bitterness offers a nice piney resin to the finish. Sure this isn’t super complex, but is that what it is trying to be? Another solid pilsner that I will drink during the upcoming heat of summer.
