Nordic Pilsner
Millstream Brewing Company

Love it

 

The look, is clear, corn/honey yellow. Beautiful. There was a lot of foam in the initial pour. The smell is clean, crisp, bountiful, fresh bread, honey, and lemon. It is much sweeter and pleasant than most Pilsners. The taste is strong with honey, dough, lemon, and butter. Quite delicious. The mouthfeel is clean, smooth, light, and buttery. Very nice. Overall, this beer stands out from other Pilsners, with more pronounced flavor and aroma. It is very enjoyable to drink.

Thanks to beergoot for this one, from his NBS BIF #16 boxes. No idea what makes it a "Nordic" Pils, and the brewery website was than zero help. 16oz can (dated 10/25/22) poured into 14oz teku. Poured a very hazy dark gold color with less than a half-inch of white head that dissipated almost instantly and left no lacing.

Mildly sweet, earthy malt at the front of the nose, with soft floral hops in the background. Similar on the tongue, with the malt having a bit bit more grain, and the hops popping out a bit better. The body was a bit fuller than typical for the style, smooth, and had a medium finish. Drinkability was fine, although I wasn't really left craving another. Overall, a solid and pleasant brew.

16oz can stamped 10 25 22 (presumably 21 days old) poured into a nonic pint glass at fridge temp 4.3% ABV. The beer pours hefe-hazy in a light amber color with off white head. The head recedes to a thin cap and leaves a trailing web of lacing. The aroma is mild with pale malt and vaguely sweet, floral characteristics. The taste is semisweet pale malt with a touch of toasted malt. There's a hint of grassy, floral hops and mild bitterness. Mouthfeel is thin to medium bodied with average carbonation and a semi dry, slightly watery finish. Overall, good.

Lovely golden yellow body; nice, dense carbonation; one-finger plus thick head, dense and creamy, white. Cracker-like malt aroma with a nice touch of Noble hop smell wafting underneath. Light grainy flavor balanced with mild hop bitterness. Medium-light body; smooth with slight dryness at the finish.

This is a very pleasant, easy drinking pilsner.

Pours a clear light golden color with a white head . Smell is citrusy with baked bread and lemon grass . Taste has citrus cracked wheat pale malts and grassy notes. A crisp quenchable mouth fell very tasty

On tap at the brau haus. Lovely in the shade with a bratwurst. Easy lager.
