In the Bavarian tradition, this crisp, clean golden-hued pilsner is brewed with German variety Magnum hops, then lagered for 30 days for superb drinkability. Provo Girl is the type of pilsner you would find in the Munich area of Germany.

frankly, i thought this was kind of bad. i bought a six pack of cans thinking my dad would appreciate a lighter drinking beer than the hoppy stuff i was filling our fridge with, but when he ended up going the wine route for the evening, i started getting into these. it sure is light, but it doest taste very good, and for me left a lot to be desired, a poor example of the style, even if the lightness is all you seek. there is a weird thing going on with the fermentation, in fact it doesnt even really taste like lager yeast, it tastes like its an oxidized low fill can or something, tired and a little phenolic, not sure why thats the case, but its a real turn off. flat looking from the can and not as lively as i want it to be in the feel too, so the light body doesnt even save it as an easy drinker. some weird minerals and even a metallic thing, a slight detergent element too, something about this just went kind of wrong, its tinny and thin, and it just seems like a miss. i had to get good and drunk before i could drink any more of these, really lackluster offering from these guys, maybe the worst beer i have had from them to date, and it was such a shame, because all i wanted was a decent lager, i didnt even need anything special here, and it couldnt accomplish even that seemingly reasonable goal...

If you are looking for a super tasty and crushable lawnmower or shower beer, then this is the one for you. Easy to throw back and light enough to have a few or ten...

I had the Provo Pilsner on tap at the Squatters outpost in downtown Salt Lake City. It was served in hybrid strange/pilsner glass; the beer is light gold with white head. It is crystal clear.
It has a nose of grains and a bit of spice.
The taste is a bit grainy and sweet. Crackers and a hint of both floral and spice from the hops. It's pretty balanced.
The mouth is crisp with a snap from the carbonation.
I like this one.

A. Easy poor ½ inch white soapy bubbles. The bubbles even have the little rainbows on them. Good carbonation. Color is a yellow haze.
S. Yeast, honey, banana?
T. Pretty tasteless, very light citrus. I didn’t know you could make a beer that didn’t taste like anything. After taste is metallic.
M. Watery, cool, crisp.
O. Very forgettable. Skip it.
