Pouring a pale yellow with a fluffy, white head; this classically crisp pilsner is brewed with lightly kilned malt and Noble hops.

Pulled from a tap and delivered in a clear pint glass it came. There's a solid and sustaining stark white head, about a quarter inch on top. Beneath sits slightly colored yellow-amber liquid that's bright and nearly translucent. Although not delivered heavily, the aroma has that Pilsner chacter of bready malt and some hoppiness. The taste is nicely German Pils in character, with a hop bite that's not overpowering, inside a grainy, yet not too sweet softly malted body. The finish is slightly more hoppy than malty and the body is just right for the flavors and style. There's even some nice glass lacing to bare witness that this has a commendable body for its style. Take it for what it is, a very well made German Pils.

Now this is what i'm talking about. Pale pilsner coloration with ample carbonation and a head that lasts. Nice grainy nose with hop greenery. The taste follows the nose. No unpleasant off tastes. Crushable. I enjoy this one much more than the more casual-drinker leaning 'Premium' Lager.

12oz can canned 09/?/22 into a tall Pilsner glass.
L: Pours very pale straw yellow w a soapy 1"" white head w good retention until halfway thru then eventually edge foam, very few large carbo bubbles, steady broken lacing w some banding.
S: Light noble hops, grains, lemon, pastry dough, lightly floral, a hint of crackery bread malt.
T: Soft bright lemon, kiwi, pastry dough, citrus zest, a whisper of green apple, very light yeast, a long citrus linger and zesty to the finish.
F: Gently crisp, lightly juicy light bodied feel w a semi-fast finish and a long linger. It is drying.
O: A very fruity Pils with great attitude, blend and feel. It's a little bit doughy towards the finish and is overall quite refreshing. I personally absolutely love the taste of this beer. It could possibly qualify as a crossover beer. It is very good in its style.

I created this account specifically to review this beer. I've had a lot of beer in my life, to understate, and this ... is... the worst beer, I've ever had, in my life. By far. Smells like vomit. Tastes like vomit. Not much more to say. Avoid at all costs.

A: The beer is hazy and a bit pale yellow in color with a light amount of visible carbonation. It poured with a short white head that left a thin collar around the edge and delicate lacing covering the surface.
S: Light to moderate aromas of bready malts are present in the nose.
T: The tasted follows the smell and has flavors of bready malts along with hints of fruity yeast. A slight amount of bitterness is perceptible.
M: It feels light-bodied and clean on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This pilsener is very easy to drink but the hops and malts seem to be muted.

Clear gold, with light white head.

Smell is light bread dough, fresh straw, lightly spicy and sweet floral noble hop aroma.

Taste is fresh white bread, with a touch of honey, sweet woodruff(syrup) , with moderate spiciness. Lingering light bitterness .

Feel is light, slightly syrupy, with mild very, very fine carbonation tingle.

Overall, another good one from Sloop. Seems on the border between/hybrid of a pils & a helles. I was hoping for something a bit more crisp/dry, but it's still pretty good, and enjoyable.
