12oz bottle: This one pours a slightly hazy, straw yellow color. There was a HUGE white head on it. The aroma is OK, and a little light. A bit of malts, grassy hops, lemon and a faint hint of spices. The taste is good. Notes of the lemon, malts and spices. Very little (almost none) bitterness to it. A pilsener should have a bit more than this one. Still a good beer overall.

This brew pours a perfect, for a pilsner, clear golden straw color with a white foamy one finger head which lasts until near the end, moderate lacing on the glass, good carbonation.
The smell is lemongrass, sweet and roasted malts. A little caramel and peppery hops appear to be in the mix as well.
The taste is straw, lemongrass, caramel malts with a light spattering of peppery hops on the backend.
The mouthfeel is a little tangy, earthy and gritty although not very gritty. The brew leaves a bit of a dry taste in the mouth after swallowing.
This is a fine pilsner and I think a near perfect example of what a pilsner should be. I normally don't like pilsners but I will be drinking more of this.

Poured from bottle into a pint glass
Appearance – Pours a golden-yellow color with a one finger white head. The head persists fairly well, leaving an only very light level of lace on the sides of the glass.
Smell – The aroma is of a grainy malt and some aromas of a light caramel smell. Mixed with these smells are some aromas of a lemon and grassy nature.
Taste – The taste begins on the drier and breadier maltines side with a light level of caramel sweetness. As the flavor advances some lighter grassy and herbal flavors come to the tongue while a light citrus hop comes as well. In the end, a little bit of a skunky flavor and some flavors of more malty and herbal nature come to the tongue to produce and leave a crisper taste to linger on the tongue.
Mouthfeel –The body of the beer was on the lighter side with a carbonation level that was rather average. Appropriate for the style as it made for a very easy drinking brew.
Overall – Nothing too special here. Decent but nothing too great.

Poured from a 12 FL OZ bottle into a pint glass. I received a 24 mixed pack from Full Pint Brewing Company for Christmas from an uncle who lives in Pittsburgh. I am anxious to give this a go!
Appearance: Pours a bright golden yellow with decent carbonation. Head is minimal and disappears quickly.
Smell: Grainy malt aroma dominates. Thin hop aroma. Saltwater?
Taste: Metallic hop flavor dominates. Somewhat unbalanced. It tastes like a standard local brewpub pilsner. Slightly salty taste, which is interesting.
Mouthfeel: Very crisp and refreshing. High point of the beer.
Overall: I appreciate what the brewer is going for, although I feel a lot of smaller/newer breweries have a tough time pulling off a great lager. The aroma is too grainy, while the flavor is not subtle enough. I like that this beer has its beer nerd stats listed on the label.
