Bottle. Pours yellow, no head. Clean taste, not much to go on, but a good pilsener

Clean hoppiness is the main flavor to this brew. Could do without the slight skunky flavor to it but thankfully it doesn’t ruin the flavor.

I drank this from a 12oz bottle into a pilsner glass...The beer is gold lots of carbonation, medium clear. Nice white head that stays forever with really nice lacing... The aroma isn’t great, a little hops but a weird metallic skunk. The taste is pretty much the same, light hops, a bitter metal finish...The feel is nice, pretty easy to drink.

"Live Simply" Lets see if it is a simple but good pils. It comes in a 12 oz green bottle. The brewery is in Berkley but it is an authentic Austrian recipe.
Pours a nice pale gold with active carbonation bubbles racing for the bright white head. There is some decent lacing as the head recedes.
There is an initial whiff of skunk, it is a domestic brew, it shouldn’t have that, but oh well. It was actually pretty far back on the shelf in the back of the store I bought it from, out of the light. Beyond the skunk it a noticeable noble hop aroma, similiar to Sam Adams Noble Pils.
The taste still tastes American and not Austrian. It could be that they don’t import the ingredients but I am not sure. It is better than other Americanized Pils examples.
Overall it is decent but not perfect.

Bottle from Hannes in Konigsleiten, Austria, for the VIP’s only. Golden body with slight head. Nose of malts, corn and spices. Taste also quite pilseneresque. Corny. Watery texture.

2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
Pours gold with a large head.
Nose shows loads of grassy hops and a bit of bready malt.
Flavours include a hint of lemon alongside the bready and grainy malt. Hardly any bitterness in the short-lived finish.
Very watery.
