Kveik pilsner gift from BIL. 3rd beer on game night. Easy drinker.

 

Pale, hazy, with a tall white head, poured from an aluminum can. The color is a pale, yellowish gold. The aroma has a grain and very light malt note, as well as a faint herbal hop smell. The taste is soft and slightly sweet. Grain is notable in the taste as well. Medium-light in body.

Clear straw yellow color with a modest but lasting fine white head and some nice lacing.
The aroma is very mild, a bit of grain and herbal hops.
The taste is also very mild, very light caramel malt, a touch of honey, with some decent herbal hops.
The body is very light, a bit watery but very smooth and easy to drink.
Altogether, this is another decent summer cooler, should be good with most food, not exciting but refreshing and crushable.

Pues from a can. Straw in color with a large head and some lacing. Smells of malt and honey. Flavor follows the smell. Smooth and easy drinker, enjoyable

Good Amber color with a small but lasting white cap.

I get a mild aroma of grain and slightly sharp hops. Perhaps a touch of caramel as well.

Taste is clean, rounded and straight forward. Like a good restaurant house Amber with a bit more hops than usual. Should work well with food. Understated, unchallenging, almost unremarkable, yet satisfying.

Medium texture with an almost silky feel.

I don't rely on brewer name choices but Kveik Pilsner seems a bit odd for this one. It's listed here on BA as a cream ale and that seems to me as more appropiate. That's how it strikes me, an Amber Cream Ale with a notch more hops.

 

They call this a pilsner but a cream ale it is...no real pilsner like characteristics.... it is clean but is not crisp...very muted and rather disappointing flavor. I could eat lots of wings or a burger with this but as a standalone, it is uneventful and feels like a waste of $...

It's local so I had to try it but...I can't say it would be something I would want to purchase again....

Had on tap at the brewery

This is actually a Kviek Pseudo-Pils. On arrival a one finger fine head was present that receded quickly to a decent covering. Lacing tries to form. Body is a traditional golden straw.

Aroma is light all around with a touch of citrus and earthy hops. Just a touch of fermentation character.

Taste is again light. The hops come across as a bit American and the malt is very light. This is super crushable but I wish there was more.

Feel is verging on thin with a short to medium finish.

Overall, this is a super clean beer that's almost a pilsner, but real pilsners have more flavor than this. That says a lot about kviek yeast, but I want more from the beer!
