Good ’hot day beer’. Nice hops but not overpowering.

Truly is ’golden’. A great pilsner - great head retention - nice belgian lace - taste is well balanced hoppy flavor with an exquisite crisp finish - not very rich but few pilsners are or should be - a wonderful ’beginner’ beer for those looking to break away from the Budmilloors habit. Cheers!

I am not going to lie and say that pilsners are my favorites, but I was impressed by this beer. It is true to the pilsner style with no overwhelming taste of either malt or hops. It was also true to it’s ’golden’ color. all in all a fairly refreshing beer.

Good beer. Not quite the ’bite’ of Pilsner Urquell, and that suits my taste fine. Always a favorite item tto find in the fridge.

I am not a Sam Adams fan, but this was the exception. I loved this beer. By far the best product they ever made. In my mind this was a perfect beer.

Pretty average pils, not a favorite of mine. Good, thirst-quenching, with some bitterness and citrus note. Would prefer more bite...
