This beer poured a hazy, straw yellow with thick white head. The head retention was impressive, and lasted until the last sip. The aroma was mild - some spicy, noble hop aroma but not as much as I expected. The taste was perfect to style - some sweet malt up front followed by some spicy, saaz bitterness. Overall, it was crisp, and slightly lemony, and incredibly drinkable. One of the best imported, german pilseners I've had in the US.

poured into yuppie wine glass for analysis purposes

A: very transparent golden straw color. Looks like sunlight and is extremely beautiful. Small bubbles and rising. Alittle bit of sediment also. Pale white ring of head
S: Scents of sweet malt and yeast. Also fresh grass and light fruit. Faint scents of banana and sweet herbal hops. Great layered aroma.
T: Light malt and alot of grass and grain on the palate. Alittle bit of stale bread also...herbal spices and mellow fruit. Surprisingly hop-bitter on the backend, extremely satisfying. Aftertaste is of bready dough, not bad though
M: Bright carbonation makes this beer palate cleansing. Crisp and medium to full bodied. Dry
O: I know i'm young to German Pilsners but this one might take the cake. Great layers of malt and hops make this borish looking beer extremely complex. Carbonation is spot on also making this beer perfect for summertime evening and late night extravaganzas. Too bad its march but soon I'll be drinking this in june. thx

Picked this one up at Whole Foods today.. Poured into my HotD goblet... slightly hazed straw yellow.. good white head and retention.

Nose is pale maltiness with some significant sulfur/DMS... Hops break through and reveal a bit of spicy/earthy notes.

Flavor is sorta flat pils malt balanced only by just enough hop bitterness and not enough hop flavor.. seems very flimsy.. again there is a pronounced sulfur/corny note that lingers mid-palate to the finish.

Body seems a touch heavy, carbonation seems a little light.

Maybe an old bottle, but I am still unimpressed.

A - slightly hazy straw golden, very bubbly, tall white head dissipated slowly
S - plenty of grain and spice, herbs, and light fruity finish
T - grainy and fruity yeasty flavours quickly followed by spicy crisp hops and some herbal notes, all very big raw flavours that meld into a very tasty brew
M - crisp and well carbonated start, somewhat yeasty and bready, finishes mildly dry
O - an insatiably drinkable pilsner that has the classic hallmarks with some added yeasty and fruity flavours to make it truly complex

Pours a very cloudy, pale golden yellow color with a 2.5 finger pillowy white head that slowly settles into a lasting ring. Sporadic streaked of spotty lacing left behind.

Earthy, floral hop aroma with hints of grass, straw, light fruit and pale malts. Nice balance of hops and malt with some apple, pear, bread and biscuit countering the grassy pine notes.

Full bodied for the style with a crisp earthy hop bite that lingers over the pale malt, bready yeast and light fruit notes into a slightly dry finish. Floral with resinous, grassy pine notes along with straw, hay, bread and pilsner malts. Slightly metallic in the finish but this beer us refreshing, decently balanced and easy to drink.

want a pilsner -- this is what you want!

perfect pour, very lively out of the bottle.... clear pale yellow liquid with inviting bubble fizz... 2 finger white head that fizzes out quick.

aroma is superb, clean bohemian hops and a touch of yeast.... the taste is excellent as well.... bright and dry... grassy, hints of apple and pear.... some herbal elements, tea-like.... very light and refreshing --- just what the doctor ordered.

this is the best pils i have ever had... i am going over the top with 4.5s here.... but i would buy a case of this if i could.

EXCELLENT PILSNER!
