3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pours straw to very pale copper with moderate creamy white head. Laces very favorably. Aroma is surprisingly hoppy with sharp citrus tinge, mellowing to a slight doughy scent. Flavor starts as cereal with a hint of malt sweetness but gives way to a nice bitter punch. Medium body with tight crisp finish. I am not a big pilsner fan, but a really nicely crafted brew
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pours a pale straw colour with a moderately thick white head. Aroma is quite hoppy, with a little bit of sweet citrus fruit. Taste is fantastic. Mildly sweet moving to a slightly bitter finish. Medium body with a very clean texture and finish. Overall, not a particularly complex beer, but it executes on the Pilsener style perfectly.

This clear pale yellow beer pours into a flute with an attractive white head and a banana and yeast aroma. There is a crisp pale malt flavor with a bit of banana ester and subtle hop bitterness. A very nice pilsener.

Smells of corn and cereal and pours clear yellow. Very complex for a pilsner and well balanced. The flavor is light and easily drinkable.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
A nice, stiff hoppy Pilsener. Presents itself with a frothy head and plenty of bubble activity. The Saaz hops is executed very well. Full palate and rich in the mouth. I would give this a higher rating but there was something in the finish I didn’t love. Maybe a thin bitterness or sourness that wasn’t part of the hop profile? Older hops? Pelletized hops? However, still a good beer and I love to see craft-brewed pilseners. One of my all time favorite styles. Also check out Stoudt’s Pils.
3.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours yellow and slightly hazy with big white head. Aroma is very nice and clean, crisp floral and citrus. Flavor hits you right away with a lot of bitter but clean herbal hops...a bit more bitter than I expected. But it does leave a nice clean aftertaste with a touch of subtle sweet malt. I began to enjoy it more towards the end of the glass. Very refreshing, but a touch too bitter, otherwise very nice.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Pours a perfectly clear yellow with a frothy white head. Nose is floral hops with some crisp sweet malt, nice wafts of citrus and lemon zest. Flavor is a sharp hop bitterness, followed by nice citrus and floral flavors along side just enough sweet to balance it out. FInishes dry and bitter. Excellent Pilsner.

Prima Pils on tap at the Falling Rock. The beer was golden yellow and clear. The head was white and loosely packed. The smell was earthy, dirty, hops. Some mineral too. The taste was also very earthy and slightly crisp. This might be really good for the style but I don’t like lagers so I don’t know. This was a good choice for a hot day however.
