1.8 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20
I was really disappointed with this pilsener. It didn’t have the czech bitterness. Instead it tasted a bit like soap. The malt was really odd. There was little of no head on the beer. The color was nice though. Very golden as you would expect. I was not impressed by this beer.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
UPDATED: JAN 3, 2009 On tap at the brewpub in SLC. Pours a clear and light gold with a thin white head. The aroma is mostly bready and full of malts. The taste was filled with a kinda funky malt with some hops. Not bad, but pretty simple brew. Re-rate: had this again on tap, and it was pretty nice; light hops and malt, pretty earth and malty. A nice smooth drink.

Poured a nice clear yellow straw color with a healthy cap of head on top. The nose was mostly grassy and not much else. The taste was grassy and spicey with very lttle malt backbone. The finish was bitter and bready. The feel was medium to thin. This pils was too lightly malted and way over-hopped, creating an off balance brew that didn’t work for me at all.

Pale yellow-gold with a light head. Sour malts and hops. Cologne almost. Similar flavors with more hops. Thin palate weak body make a boring beer.

2004 NABA Festival: Clear golden yellow pour. Soapy head. Smells of citrus and fruit. Slight bitterness.

NABA ’04: Yellow pale, some head, light lacing. Malty watery aroma, musty flavor, bad finish.

Golden yellow, active with a nice head. Inviting "beery" aroma. The flavor is not unlike many macros -- malty and "corny", but with better mouthfeel and character.
