Clear, pale lemon yellow in colour with a frothy white head. Some lacing. Sweet aroma. Medium bodied (a little on the watery side) with average carbonation. Low to moderate bitterness. No strong flavours, some sweetness, very slightly malty. Refreshing...Not bad. - 500ml bottle.

Clear yellow with a pillowy white head. Earth hops, malty, and a bit of citrus in the nose. Smooth body with a light dry bite at the end. Muted flavor with the hops being the most prominent feature. Some sweet malt lies underneath. Decent, but a bit of a let down, actually.

Had in a bottle. Average pilsner. Good with the right food (sausages, bread). Kind of watery taste but not cheap tasting. Nothing too great to get excited about if I drank it on it’s own.

Nice well rounded pilsner. Good bitter finish. Malt maybe a little sweet., but still very nice and refreshing.

golden clear with white head. flavor of munich malt but the hop finish is somewhat astringent and overpowering. an unusual pilsner that really stands upon the hop finish than the maltiness
