Pours a bright light yellow with a big white head. A little citrus and grain smell, but not much. The flavor is light and dry. Nice for summer, as the name implies.

Bottle: Pours a moderate golden with a lasting small dense white head. Nice stringy lacing. Nose is lemons and limes over grains and a bit of dry hay. Body is light and has matching hops thruout body and finish. Mouthfeel is a bit on the hollow side with a bit of metalic creaminess that lesds directly into the finish. Overall an enjoyable brew that needs a bit more to stand out in a crowd but is nonetheless an easy drinker.

Transparent pale gold with nice carbonation and a decent white head. Aroma is sweet grainy malts with lemon and a faint berry. Crisp and slightly bitter, the flavor is similarly grainy. A rather watery palate, but still, this is a decent beer, certainly enjoyable in the hot weather.

This is a good summer beer. I like to see that a micro has experimented with a summer pilsner instead of a summer ale. Much more flavor in this than other summer beers although still a LITTLE bit watered down tasting.

Very pale golden/straw colour brew with a thick white head. Aroma is quite light but with a bright grassy hoppiness. Fairly assertive, floral bitterness over a lean but crisp pilsener malt base. Lightly grassy and a little bit minerally. It’s a pretty solid pils.

A yellow hue reminiscent of pale lagers , a long lasting white head. Which had nice retention and lacing. Aroma was malty, almost corn-like and floral hop note. Flavor had some mild bitterness to it, but real mild malt notes Well balanced and light, not to powerful for a hot summer’s day.

Not being a fan of Pilsners, I found this to be exceptional! I tend to find most Pilsners bland and well kind of useless. This doesn’t have much is the way of looks or aroma but it makes up for it in taste. I was introduced to this a few years back and we make sure we take a case with us every time we tailgate!

Poured a clear,pale, light yellow with a nice tall, foamy, bright white head. Nice carbonation bubbles rising in the glass. Not much aroma to this one. Good carbonation led to a crisp clean taste that developed a mild bitterness on the finish. A good lawnmower beer
