Not bad, rounded flavor for a Pils. Gets one thumb up. Session-y.

Can, best by 9/20/08. Pours a light gold with a foamy white head. Aroma of light fruits, grassy hops, lots of wheat. Flavor of light sweet malt and wheat, bitter hops finish. Rather carbonated. Ok pils, but a little bitter for my liking and the malt base was a bit weak.

Can, best by 9/20/08. Aroma first of grass and grain, then going toward sweet, lemony malt. Flavor of grass, hay, lots of graininess, lots of bitterness, especially in the finish. Not sure I actually like all the bitterness overshadowing my beloved lemony malt, but certainly a nice beer.

WOw, this beer looks awesome, super clear, and golden, with a beautiful full white head. Awesome aroma of bready malt, and some really nice bitter czech hops. Flavour is sooooooo nice, super crisp, and so well balanced. Awesome sweet bready malt, along with a really nice bitter hop twang. Absolutely spot on for the style, easily one of the best Pils i have ever had. If you love pils, do yourself a favor, get some of this.

Can from willblake or dickinsonbeer. Thanks boys! This is a nice and smooth, easy drinking pils. Nice grassy hop presence throughout. Can you tell I didn’t take any notes on this one. But I did write down a rating.

12oz can served in a footed pilsener glass. Pours light gold with a large audible white head. Smells grassy, herbal, and of bread. Grassy, floral flavor layered on top a slight breadiness. Lasting hop flavoring. Finishes with a slight metallic note, though other than that it is pretty solid.
