On tap at the ABQ brewpub. Pours a clear yellow with a very small white head. Aroma of sweet fruits and sweet bready malt. Flavor is also very sweet, especially for a pilsener. Sweet, fruity, with some bready malt. Still a good pilsener.

3.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
12oz bottle. Pours a light yellow with almost no head, and what there is dissipates quickly. Smells mostly of hops and malt, slightly of bread. The taste is bitter and bready, but refreshing. Perfect carbonation for this style. I’d drink this again.

12 oz. bottle. Pours a thin head, attractive lacing over a pale slightly cloudy body.....nose mild hops, mild malt with a bit of non specific spice....taste of mild hop, mild malts, with minimal follow through...rather too light for a Pilsner. 11/12/2008
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pours a pale gold with a respectable, glass-coating white head. Aroma is sweet pale malt and grass. The taste marks this one as an excellent pilsener. Crisp, clean, refreshing taste of malt sweetness along with a hop flavor and bitterness which is very obvious but not overdone. Great effort. I’d put it up there with Victory as an excellent domestic pils.

Thanks to Terminus aka Beerdrenched aka TannerTavernBoys for bringing this pils back from his west coast trip. Pours clear golden with a quickly diminishing white head. The aroma has lots of pils malt, light diacetyl notes and a hint of spicy hops. Medium / thin body that’s more lush than most pils and has some semi-sharp carbonation. The flavor begins with pils malt that’s fairly rich along with some spiced hops and bits of grass. The finish shows some oxidation and more spicy hops. This seems like an aged decent pils. Hopefully I get to try this fresh at some point and give a rerate.
