Commercial Description:
Pure pils pleasure with a juicy jolt... Our latest single hop varietal pils features a fresh twist. A very fresh twist as whole flower hops went from the vine to the kettle in a mere 10 hrs. giving the beer a snap of freshness that has to be tasted to be believed. In 'wet hopped' beers such as this, the hops are full of fresh oils that dissipate when the hops normally dried. These essential oils give Braumeister Harvest Pils the clean, spicy hop aromas you'd expect from a pristine pilsner, followed by the long, satisfying mouthfeel full of flavorful hop depth and substance. All this flavor yields to clean malt and a crisp finish.

on tap at Brick Store Pub (sample). Wonderful pilsner with a deep golden color and medium body. Tastes very fresh and crisp. Nice hops and a pleasure to drink.

Pours a clear golden yellow with a medium white head. Aroma of floral tones, bitter hops, citrus, lemon and yeast. Taste is bitter hoppy with hints of lemon citrus, floral tones and fresh yeast. Very good.

Draft at Capone’s. Slightly hazy yellow/amber color. Flavor is fruity (apricot) and doughy; pilsner malt with grassy hops. Very bitter finish.

Drinkable but entirely average beer -- muddled hop aroma with a syrupy repetitious taste of malt and sourness. Finish is not crisp but lazy. Disappointing mainly because of the wonders of the Prima Pils from the same brewer.

Tap at Legend with maniac. Hazy yellow with a decent head, mistaken by most for a wit at first glance. Aroma was a huge blast of green hops with floral and herbal notes. Flavor was a somewhat shocking hop tea. No discernable malt character whatsoever that I could pick up, much to my surprise. Loads of green hops with floral, herbal, and slight grass character, long bitter finish. But the lack of suffficient malts really hurt this badly for me. RERATE: Ultra clear this time around, still has a load of spicy, floral and herbal hops. Great nose, flavor still hurts from lack of malt character.

On guest tap at Legend Brewing Company as "Victory Harvest Pils". Clody golden orange body with a meium creamy white head. Sweet citrus and grassy hops aroma. Sweet grassy flavor with a bitter grapefruit citrus finish.

Draft half pint at statelineliquors.com. Pour is golden with a huge fluffy white head, solid retention and lacing. The aroma was bready, pilsy malts, some grass. The flavor was mostly bready with some dough in there too, a spicey grassy hop presence, good balance and heartiness. The finish was clean and dry, amply carbonated, full-bodied, again a hearty feel to it even. A nice beer. Thanks, Robert!
