3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Not sure why the crowns on Ratebeer are ranking in mid 2’s? Ranking this beer against it’s peers in the Summer Pils Lager category, I think this stands up very nicely. Pours straw yellow with grassy malted nose. Taste is strong pilsner, without the skunking of a Heineken. Very refreshing, light, sessionable. (But I was just done with mowing the lawn - Perhaps that is why it tasted so good.)

Pours a slightly cloudy pale/yellow with a ¼ inch white head. Smells of citrusy saaz hops. First sip is bitter sweet. This Pilsner is clean and refreshing. It seems to have a higher hop profile than others in its class.
1.9 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
Bottle. Clear, pale golden body with a white head. Cellarish, plastic-like aroma with pale malt. Pale malt, some fruits and hops, and a little note of plastic in the flavor. Thin body and not much bitterness. I was hoping for a crisper, hoppier and more pronounced beer. Disappointing. As I’m so much against the grain, it would be lovely to have another. (080822)
