3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
(bottle - 500 ml) Clear yellow pour with a fizzy white head. Aroma is light and hoppy with a little bit of sweetness in it as well. Some light citrus hiding at the back. Flavor is very light and crisp at the start with a light touch of hops mixed with some spice and a little bit of yeast. The middle is crisp and sweet with hints of apple peels and then moves to a very dry and slightly bitter finish. Very nice.

In short: A macro-ish pseudo-pilsner lager.
How: Bottle, drank fresh the day of purchase
The look: Clear yellow-blonde body topped by a short-lived small white head
In long: Oily sugary cereals. Some honey. Taste of Corn Flakes™. Shy hops. Total lack of character. Macro sensation. Insultingly bland. Some rotten fruits as the beer warmed-up. I was in a road trip in the USA and after too many imperial-something I felt like a refreshing European lager. I picked one I didn’t know. That’s what I got. I would be in a trip over-sea and missing north-american food I would randomly chose something I never had and I’d pick a McFish sandwich. That’s the type of looser I am.

essa Pilsener alemã tem espuma de aparência inicial média e rochosa, de coloração branca e reduzida longevidade. Há boa formação de colarinho e o corpo é claro e borbulhante, de coloração amarelo pálido, brilhante. O aroma é moderadamente lupulado, com notas de grama e também adocicado. Já o sabor inicial é levemente doce e ácido; o final, de média duração, apresenta leve doçura e amargor. Compõem o paladar um corpo leve, de textura aguada, forte carbonatação e final metálico. É bem balanceada e refrescante.

Pours a light golden with a small thick frothy white head. Classic Spaten grassy, metallic, sweet malt aroma. This is a lovely pilsner, very malty yet remains very clean. Huge bitter aftertaste, dry finish and a bit bready as well. About as full bodied a pils as one can find, still smooth and quite crisp though, fantastic palate. Sweeter and richer, but still a pilsner with a nice hop bite.

This is a highly underrated beer. Consistently one of my favorite pilsners. It’s a shame more US beer manufacturers aren’t brewing lager style beers. This is every bit as good as Pilsner Urquell.

Bronze with a thick, lush foam head. Served in a 1 liter mug, draft. Typical pils smells with some sulphur and European hops. Flavor is pretty similar. Not at all impressed with this one.

Just $2.29 for the bottle.this poured a clear orange with fat white head. Nose of citrus,. Medium but smooth mouthfeel. Flavor is of mild hops and some caramel malts. Slightly bitter finish. Pretty good brew.

Party Keg 5L from John’s Grocery.
Pours a very clear golden orange with a foamy white head. The head lingers and leaves a nice lacing on the glass. Not a lot of carbonation as compared to most pils I’ve tried before. The aroma is pretty weak and smells like a light beer. Its a slightly malted lager smell even though its a pils. The flavor is very malty for a pils with no real carbonation, which is surprising. Their is a faint taste of hop and a nice flavor. Its hard to put my finger on, but I do like it. Its wet all the way through and lingers for awhile. Overall its a nice pils because its different than most I’ve tried. A nice German flair makes this a decent beer.
