COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Bottom fermented pilsner style beer. Very elegant, pale in color, dry and hoppy. Its crisp clean taste is due to the extra fine Bavarian hops.

Very bright, almost clear yellow body, modest carbonation and huge solid head. Aroma is almost entirely hops, some alcohol. Taste is smooth with a ghostly hoppy aftertaste, easy to drink but there’s not much there. Still if you like your beer to be easy-going, this is okay.

2010-07-04. Very pale yellow, small white head. 2+ Dilute grainy pale malts in aroma foreshadow a similar character in the flavour. Thin grainy pale malt, light lemony-cidery hints. Average to light palate. Poor, watery. On tap at Seattle International Beer Festival

Classica ma godibilissima pils. Al naso è un pò piatta con lievissimi sentori di lievito e frumento. In bocca è molto morbida ed equilibrata ed è bevibilissima.

[3112-20100704] Sample. Not much aroma, a little grassy yeast straw aroma. Clear, yellow body with a quick foamy white head. Grainy corn yeast aroma has a bit of straw. Light body. Not very interesting but not bad either.

On tap; good and solid, yet mild, very easy drinking german pilsner. A little hoppy but great beer on a hot day
