COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Our pils is a sturdy, hoppy and blossomy blond beer, which is top fermented. Brewed from 100% barley malt. You really should have a couple of these in your fridge. On tap only in our tasting room and Cafe De Balie.

MoritzF (7137) - Bochum, GERMANY - DEC 20, 2010
(bottle, 33cl) Cloudy, pale golden colour with a big and slightly off-white foamy head. Yeasty, wheaty and citrus-fruity aroma with herbal-spicy hops. Bitter flavour, light bodied with a lively carbonation. Initially slim malty taste with notes of citrus and yeasty spice, dry and rather slim finish with an increasing hoppy and yeasty bitterness. Not that rounded. 19.XII.10

Quack-Duck (5596) - Down South, GERMANY - DEC 15, 2010
bottle. Hazy pale yellow, large white head. Sourish-fruity nose. Light-bodied, dry palate, very hoppy indeed. A fruity-sourish touch os also, present, as are spices and herbs. Neither Bohemian nor a Pilsener (more like a very/extremely hoppy Bitter), but I like it a lot.

erickok (802) - Leiden, NETHERLANDS - DEC 9, 2010
Quite hoppy, sugar, fruit. Great aroma for a pilsner. Spicy flavour. Very tasteful beer. Not necessarily an easy drink, though, since the bitterness can get rough and the alcohol - although appreciated - is quite notable.

Countbeer (1686) - Best of Eindhoven ohne Brauhaus, NETHERLANDS - NOV 29, 2010
Bottle: Small off white airy head on top of a hazy yellow colored beer. Smell mostly hops with slight hints of yeast, malts and some spices. Taste is dominated by a bitterness that leaves few space for other ingredients. Some hints of spices, malts and yeast.

Plovmand (4685) - Helsinge, DENMARK - SEP 28, 2010
On tap at the brewpub. Cloudy yellow body with a creamy white head. The aroma is yeasty, fruity and hoppy. The flavour is hops, fresh fruit and caramel. Finishes dry.

JanEric (652) - Meppel, NETHERLANDS - SEP 13, 2010
Bottle. Light blonde, very big white head, lots of carbonation. Fresh, citrus-like aroma, some coriander in it. Taste is fresh sourish, bitter! For pilsner it’s bitter, I like that. Also some sourish, with a short to medium finish, somewhat dry in the finish.
