Pours fold with a foamy white head, which sticks around long enough for me to appreciate it. Lemon and grass aromas. Pretty bitter, finish goes from bitter to bready. Really crisp and pretty nice. I like it certainly. What a pilsener ought to be like.

I’m not sure why this is so higly rated. I had this from a tap a the local watering hole and it tasted like a pine cone. I normally love troegs and I don’t hate pilseners. Maybe I got a bad batch.

Pours out a clear light golden color with a small to moderate slightly fluffy head. Aroma is of grassy hops. Taste is refreshing a nice balance, of course leaning towards the saaz-like grassy floral hop taste. This will be a good beer for the summer, will have to pickup more.

Crystal clear, light golden beer, with a frothy, lasting head - moderately floral and grassy aroma, with strong noble hop presence - crisp and peppery, with a nice saaz bite - mild, bready pale malts - hops become stronger as the beer dries out near the finish, leaving behind a floral, almost herbal flavor, as the dryness makes the mouth thirsty for another sip - a solid pils.

Great summer beer. Highly drinkable and refreshing. Grassy pilsner taste, but with a lot more going on. Crisp hoppy taste. Not much malt flavor. Simple palate. Light bodied. NIce bitterness in the finish.

Bottle: Pale light golden/ yellow topped by a white head. The aroma has lots of fresh pils, light cracker and tons of crisp grassy/peppery noble hops. Light fluffy body with a crisp flavor. Has some mild biscuit notes and a dryness throughout. Grassy and pleasantly bitter saaz finish. Solid profile and extremely sessionable. Extremely underrated Pilsner.

yahoo for troegs, again. i have yet to be disappointed. this is a perfect spring beer easy to drink, and if a little lesser abv then perfect session. the drinkabiltiy and mouthfeel are the highpoints.

It’s a typical pils from a company I wouldn’t expect typical from. The head dissipates fast and the hops are lacking. A dry beer that isn’t worth looking for.
