This surprised me. Cloudy orangy pour with an off white head head. Lots of citrus hops in the nose. Flavor of citrus and some floral hops. Quick finish with a slight watery mouth-feel. Lightly bitter in the background. Very flavorful for the money.

12 oz. can. Slightly hazy straw color with a big pillowy white head. Aroma of musty grain and a bit of sweet malt. Flavor is watery grain and really not much else. I guess it doesn’t suck but that’s about all you can say about it.

Bottle from Skyview, thanks! Macro yellow with a four finger soapy white crown. Aroma of grains, sweet malt, perfumed malt and some sourness. Thin bodied quaff is mildly sour with malt, corn and is a tad over-carbonated.

UPDATED: NOV 19, 2011 Tap at Northwoods in Eau Claire, WI on Nov. 18, 2011. Light gold pour with a small white head. Pils grain, watery, totally unimaginative.

Pours a hazy straw with a small head. Light malt notes that blend a more deeper malt note that lingers on the finish.

Poured from a can a nice dark gold with a beautiful head that faded slowly to a substanital lacing. Aroma was of slighly sweet malt with a hint of fruity hops. Taste was malty throughout with a light to moderate hop finish. It had the classic pilsner taste - very nice. The mouthfeel was above average and pretty good. Overall, this was a pleasant surprise. Very smooth and nice tasting. Too bad price was a bit high - over $8 - for six pack of cans.

This beer is really pretty decent, but still nothing much to it. I like some more complexity.

Saw the old school label and "Preium Pilsener" and it was cheap so i bought it. 12 oz can. It pours a hazy golden color with a big white head, more like a zwickl pils than a "premium pils". The smell is fruity, unlike a normal pils. Reading other reviews I agree it smells like a slightly awkward hefeweizen. The flavor is pretty crappy. It has a harsh grain flavor with some tanginess. This would be bad even for a homebrewed beer.

Nice gold color. Good carbonation. Dry with minimal hops, but not adjunt flavors.

[Bottle] shared by Skyview. Pours a clear gold with nearly no head. Aroma is a bit skunked and grainy. Flavor has a hint of sweetness, light hoppiness, and sparkling, lively carbonation.
