Overall - this is an excellent Bavarian styled pilsner. Really spot on, clean flavors. Highly recommended.

 

Sampled in a side-by-side with the VonT flagship Bohemian Pils.


This offering is about one shade darker than the Bohemian Pils and clearer. The nose is oddly similar. The flavor profile of this one is more grainy and less bitter than the flagship. The bodies on these two are fairly even.

Poured into silipint, good fluffy white head, good retention excellent lacing. Light floral grassiness on the nose. Cracked malt on the front and floral thru the middle, finishes with a good crisp bite

 

 

 

 

From the can, it pours a slightly hazy yellow golden color with a very nice white head that slowly reduces and leaves lacing. The nose gets grass predominantly. The mouth follows with a German pilsner bitterness brew that is enjoyable to drink and calls for another!

Gold color with a faint haze. Thick, fluffy white head that leaves a good deal of lace.
Grassy, floral aroma.
Grainy, bready taste. Late hop bitterness.
Crisp mouthfeel.

From a can. Slightly hazy light-yellow with two fingers of thick white foam. Aroma of herbs and flowers. Moderately bitter and herbal. Medium bodied and very smooth.

 

 

Pours a gold color with a foamy white head that lasts quite a while. Aroma of grasses and floral notes. Taste is peppery with a slight hoppy bitterness at the end. Crisp and dry.

 

Sabtos’ review says it best.

Astounding German-style lager. Honey drizzles, royally gentle hoppy terrains, herbal crackers for days. Taste and feel are truly top of class standouts. I mean the feel is tremendously satisfying. Remains delicious at any pace of drinking, from dainty sipping to thirst quenching missions. Hugely successful beer. Yum
