Sep 15, 2009 Aroma says it all. Just like too many other beers that smell awful and deliver the same taste.

Though from Bottleworks where it was doubtless handled well, I’m not sure this was the freshest. Some skunk the aroma detracting from what could otherwise be a quite nice coupling of grainy and gently sweet malt with a dry assertive close.

Sep 12, 2009 Boy does this hit the spot right now. Light but with a bit of spice to it and a good dryness. Great beer after a hot day!

Sep 10, 2009 33cl bottle; Slightly unclear, pale golden colour with a short foamy white head. Grassy and herbal hoppy nose with a light-sweet pale malty blend. Bitter flavour, light bodied with a soft mouthfeel. Well-rounded malty base with a dry herbal and minimal grassy hoppy finish. Not a highlight but a drinkable Pils. 26.XI.08

Sep 6, 2009 Tap, never had this in a bottle. If this is fresh it can be pretty good. A not quite into medium bodied pils that has a subtle, refined, fresh floral hop aroma and taste, along with the quality European type malt it is a good brew. A very mild sweetness, with a touch of tart and crisp.
I like a decent pils and this one is into the do again circle for me.

Aug 31, 2009 Elegant green 330ml bottle from Salzburg Austria purchased at Dan Murphy’s. It is also brewed in California and I’ve tried that as well - the two versions are indistinguishable. It looks good when served in it’s signature cylindrical tall glass with a clear straw yellow body and a foamy white head that reduces after a few minutes to leave good lacing. The nose is grainy pilsner malts with grassy hops and a touch of citrus. The taste is restrained sweet malts with a soft citrus fruitiness and a nice crisp dry hop bitterness to the finish with a hint of minerals in the aftertaste. It is light-medium bodied with a lively carbonation and a slick texture. Nicely balanced flavours and immensely drinkable. Overall it is a refreshing understated uncomplicated German style pilsner providing good evidence that not all well made craft beers have to be blockbusters. It is even better on tap. Rather under-rated on this site in my opinion.

Aug 27, 2009 On tap at Mangia Pizza in Austin. Really glad this beer came to town, especially on draught. Very classic German Pils, a style I have begun to appreciate more and more after the initial love affair with English and Belgian styles. Crisp, clean, no DMS. Excellent beer.

Aug 24, 2009 Lovely light/pale yellow, crystal clear with fine head that left a lace on the glass. I get plenty of grass an light malt smells. Clean light flavour, nicely bitter with a fresh finish. Quite enjoyable.
