3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Sweet, floral aroma. Light gold pour. Fairly sweet and flavorful for the style, with something a little odd in the interaction between the sugary notes and the hops. Good overall, but not a favorite.
4.7 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 19/20
This has GOT to be one of the cleanest, clearest tastiest American beers I’ve ever had! A very incredible take on an often under-appreciated style. Do not by any means confuse THIS with your ordinary lager, either European or American. This stuff is very well made. Crystal clear light golden in color with fine bubbly carbonation. Light hop and spicy malt aromas. Flavor is well balanced with sweetness but leaning a bit on the hoppy side, but very clean in the finish. Quite, quite drinkable and satisfying.

Not a bad pils at all. Not great but not bad. Had some really nice bitterness. Lovely hop character. Crisp but not really refreshing. Nice appearance. Clear and well put together.
2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
UPDATED: DEC 18, 2010 10/2/10. 12oz bottle. Very clear. Smells like creamy nothingness. Plain slightly spicy flavor. Blah. Why does everything from this brewery suck?
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle to chilled Pilsner glass. Nice amount of white head, decent lacing. Somewhat on the hop side as far as flavor goes, but light bodied, and goes down easy.
3.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle from half time. Pours gold with a white head. Pretty bready aroma. Not much hop. Medium body with mild, but chewy carbonation. Flavor is light bready with not a lot of hop - until the malt drains off, and then there is a lot of bitter. A bit peppery, so noble hop. The hop makes up for the bread.

3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Really clean pils. Malty grians are the main flavor and aroma profile, here. Has a rounded body due to the malts and not much in the way of a crisp hop bite. Finish is where you get the first real hop presence. Not much flavor overall, but it’s still a good beer.
