12 oz brown bottle for $2. Big whiff of yeasty rising uncooked bread dough. Otherwise a pretty clean aroma. Ubiquitous pale yellow american lager beer color. Perhaps it is a little more bright lemony colored. Thin foamy white froth for a head. Some unexpected bitter bite, but what was I expecting for a pils? Industrial to an extent. Odd plastic back of throat feeling on the finishes. Interesting bitterness but I don’t think I’d call it hops. Good carbonation, with a bit of tingle on the back of the tongue. Overall a decent brew, but I was expecting something more and different. Bavik Premium Pils is much better than this.

On draft at Zeno’s, Penn State. Poured clear gold with weak head. Nose consisted of corn, yeast, and a touch of citrus. Finished crisp with a lemony citrus flavor. One of the better pilsners out there, that’s not saying much.

I was suprised at how light this poured, but what suprised me more was the flavor. I was happy to taste some hops and alittle lemon. Not bad but not great

A very different pilsener. Aroma is strong for a pilsener. Pour was almost clear wih a thin one finger head. Crisp and dry with some lemony citrus going on. Yeasty taste in the middle. Nice.

Pours a cloudy white grape juice yellow color with a small fizzy white head. Aroma of fresh yeast, lemon-lime notes and grassy bitterness. Taste is lively carbonated, with hints of limes and lemon and fresh yeast. Crispy dry finish. A refreshing hot summer day beer.

Strong yeast aroma. Fresh smelling like you brewed it in your basement. Light clear golden color. Not to much yeast taste with a light floral hop finish. Truly Liquid sunshine at 50 degrees.

Draft pour with little bit of head. Head goes away quickly leaving a clear golden pint. Nice strong pilsner bite. Nice after taste.
