look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4

Consumed 11/23/12

Appearance: Clear, slightly hazy, golden orange - a genuinely golden gold when held to the light - fizzy white head, leaves a few spots of lacing

Smell: Bready, grainy, pale malts - intentionally mild - some spiciness from the yeast, works very well - lightly grassy, with some light, sweet citrus - floral notes - lightly sweet

Taste: Pale grains and pale malts - a vague hint of toasted grains, nice malts overall - spicy lager yeast - mildly grassy (in a remarkably clean way) - some sweetness, some light hints of citrus

Mouthfeel: On the heavy side of light, could actually be a bit more crisp, nicely carbonated, nicely drinkable

Overall: Easily the best thing I've ever had from Sixpoint

This is a lovely pils. Very clean and very drinkable. It is definitely reminiscent of a German lager, but it has some serious American influences. I could drink a lot of this.

Serving type: bottle

look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 4

Appearance: Poured a nice gold with a slight straw. Good clarity. Two and a half finger white fluffy head.

Aroma: Pils malts. Light bread. Herbal/earthy hops with a very slight floral.

Taste: Similar to smell. Herbal/earthy hops upfront along with a slight floral as well. Light breadiness; it leans more cracker-like. There is a slight lemon/honey thing going on, but it is not much. Just barely there.

Mouthfeel: Crisp and refreshing mouthfeel. Feels full. Goes down smooth.. Finish has light herbal bitterness.

Overall: Crisp as properly named. A nice canned pilsner that seem to have everything a pils should and tastes good. Definitely would have again.

Serving type: can

look: 4 | smell: 3.25 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 3.5

Pours a great golden color. smells like lemon, grass, wheat. Initial taste is one of very little as far as complex flavors but I guess just what it claims to be...'crisp'. Mouthfeel watery, smooth and slightly bitter. Not one of my favorites and likely not added to my must have in fridge list.
