COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Bottle: Filtered.
Ingredients: 2 row German pale malt; Czech Saaz, German Northern Brewer hops.
Heaps o’ hops are hiding under the full, frothy head of this elegant Pils. All German malt subtleties linger beneath a long dry finish of this classy quencher.

Nice hoppy aroma. crisp unmistaken pils finish. My favorite pils. I am an IPA hop hound and Prima provides the lightness of a Pils for quenching and enough hops to make one feel near their hoppy home. Planning to home brew this soon if I can get the right lagering temp.

Entered from backlog, drank one right after a Troegs Sunshine Pils. Medium gold with a nice gentle white head. Really nice, gentle hops, crisp, fresh pils malt. Light malt backbone. A lot different than the Sunshine Pils, this was more hoppy and more bitter. Preferred the Sunshine a bit.

A solid if not spectacular pils. A litle too on the sweet side. Could stand to be a bit sharper and crisp in my book. Overall though really nice and a lovely shade of yellow in the glass.

Nena (957) - Seattle, Washington, USA - JUL 12, 2010
Light golden pour, moderately dense white head. Seems like this is a pretty fresh bottle from the aroma. Slightly sweet bread and toast aroma with floral and herbal hop character, a little white grape fruitiness. Lightly biscuity malt tasting with a lot of floral and hay flavors, and a little earthy character as well. Probably the best pilsner I’ve had, no real flaws and a little subtle complexity to it. Not a huge fan of the style, but I can enjoy this easily.

ManvsCity (167) - Redmond, Washington, USA - JUL 11, 2010
Nice and hoppy, but smooth pilsner. 12 oz bottle pours a clear honey yellow with a quickly fading white head. Aroma of dried chamomile flowers and pine nuts. Tastes of apricot, white grapes, very light malts and strong, piney hops that tingle the tongue long after the finish. Alcohol is a bit pronounced for the style, but still, this is a really refreshing session brew.

This beer has the perfect amount of hop with a smooth malt finish. Tastes great!

mu11igan (133) - Davis, California, USA - JUL 5, 2010
12oz bottle poured nice, bubbly two-finger head. I’m not typically a pilsner guy, but this one is right up my alley. Nice earthy flavor. Lots of hops that results in a pretty bitter finish. I’ve had it on tap before, and it was better then. But the bottled version is definitely nice to have when sitting in the backyard on a hot day.

Pour is light golden with a big head which settles into no head. Smells slightly of apple and flowers and slight corky flavor. Crisp feel with a bright bitterness which lingers. This is refreshing and big beer.
