Fantastic pilsner. Hop-heavy with good malt background and a lot of style.

I had to go mail order just to try this Pilsener out and I have to say, it was one of my better decisions. I’ve never tasted a more bold sample of the style: Enormous hop flavour when first poured..almost like it’s a totally unbalanced brew complete with enormous carbonation but wait a few moments and everything seems to settle down. The taste of malt finally creeps in and the huge bubbles are now small. Almost like 2 beers in one; the foamy head is retained through both stages of this beer’s life. ;^)

I think this is an extremely under-rated beer. I never liked pilsners (or any lagers for that matter) and purposely avoided this brew. Finally, a neighbor coaxed me into trying this superb beer. I've gotta tell you that I think I this as good or better than Hop Devil!

Huge hop nose and flavor. The hops are floral, herbal, pine and spruce by turns and the finish long and bitter. At the right temperature, the malt comes out and actually enhances the wonderful hop experience. Very similar to Tupper Hop Pocket. Both outstanding.

This is one of the best pilsners out there hands down. It pours an nice golden hazy color and retains a full head. Has a grassy aroma to it, with hints of lemon. This brew has a rich aromatic hoppy taste which makes this a trully exceptional excellent brew.

UPDATED: JUL 27, 2003 is it a pilsener? it's so delicoius with no annoying nose or corny taste. actually, has a surpising sweet malt taste, unlike most even czech pilseners. a pleasure the whole way through. note: a good one to wean stubborn americans onto something great.

Fresher taps are highly recommeded, and a bit different than botles. Fresh taps lack the intense floral aroma, but cater to a wider audience as a result. Very crisp flavor, a hoppier, very American rendition of a European classic style. Head is full but light out of the bottle, for a pilsner the aroma will knock you out. New York Times rated this a top pils in a global test.

On draught at restaurant. Clear gold colour with large white head, looks like a pilsner as drawn by an artist. Herbal nose. Malty flavour with full taste. Fine finish long and dry. This is a wonderful pilsner. I loved it.
