look: 4 | smell: 3 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 5

Pours a slightly murky straw yellow with a fluffy slightly off-white head that laces decently.

Very light on the nose. Some sweet corn notes, a bit of another grain, and a bit of mustiness.

The taste is where this one shines. The initial attack is very sweet graininess, with a touch of corn and sugars. The finish adds the slight hop bitterness, but the sweet is what mostly lingers.

Fairly robust body for the style, and rather creamy. A little less carbonation than I would have anticipated, but works pleasantly with the sweetness.

Really easily drinkable, I could put back a few of these. The aftertastes are very pleasant, and the ABV keeps it in the sessionable range. Might be my new favorite pilsner.

Serving type: can

3.25/5  rDev -6.3%
look: 3.25 | smell: 3.25 | taste: 3.25 | feel: 3.25 | overall: 3.25

Appearance: Pale, golden, effervescent

Aroma: Floral, citrus

Taste: Hoppy, slightly bitter

Remarks: This was one of my first reviews, so there wasn't much to go on.

I didn't like it enough to put a bumper sticker on my car, unless it said "Bitte, kein Bit"

Did not score A, T, S, M at that time; disregard those scores

Serving type: bottle
