Crystal clear, light yellow body; relatively sparse carbonation; nice head, fairly thick and frothy, some foam stickiness. Mild, cracker-like malt base; earthy. Nice flavors; cracker and bread crust; moderate overall hop bitterness; mineral-like quality. Generally light body; crisp; toasty warmth; fairly sharp snap to the palate.
Overall, a decent German pilsner which focuses on the malt profile with a bold, complementary hop bitterness. I had this earlier at a much warmer temperature and enjoy the balance much more so. Served colder it comes across a bit sharper. Still, a nice lager all the same.
Pouring temperature: 46 °F; canning info: n/a

16oz can served in a footed pilsner glass. If there's a date, I don't see it. Received from @Beersnake1 in a LIF associated with NBS BIF #14.
Pours very clear with a medium sized head that collapses to a thin dusting and a scrawny ring, although it has a fair amount of active carbonation. Smell is lightly grainy, moderate grassiness, fairly mild overall, moderate yeasty funk.
Taste is mostly in line. Grain is a bit stronger and a bit huskier, grassiness is more accentuated after a couple sips, I'm not sure I would say it's a mild flavor exactly but it's not particularly assertive. Hmmm. But that bitterness is building more and more with each sip, which I'm appreciating more. I'm also starting to get a light, oaky earthiness.
Mouthfeel is very light and clean. Dry. Overall, nice beer.

Appearance is a crystal clear golden color with a finger and a half of medium density white head that slowly recedes to a thin cap. Aroma is really nice, with plenty of bready malts, biscuit & grains. Exactly what I want out of this style of beer.
Taste follows, with some nice toasty malts, bread & grass notes. There's a nice subtle bite on the finish that rounds out the flavor nicely. Slightly less crisp than ideal, but that's a bit of a nit. Overall, this is a very well done pilsner.

Pours a crystal clear brilliant color. Incredibly effervescent. However that does not translate into much of a head as there is just a thin white head on the beer lacking much heft or staying power. Aroma has lovely notes of biscuit, bready malts, a rich malty sweetness, and a lightly toasted character to the bready malts. Light spicy hop notes come through.
Taste follows the nose with rich bready malts, again there is a light toast to it that Im finding really enjoyable. There are notes of spicy, earthy hops, a light clover honey sweetness from the malts and a hint of straw and biscuit notes. The malts are really well developed and quite flavorful in this one. A light bitterness comes through on the back end lingering into the finish. Feel is light, crisp, refreshing and incredibly drinkable. Light bitterness and dryness on the back end.
Overall this is an outstanding pilsner from Bottle Logic - color me impressed.

Poured from tap at Bottle Logic. Pours orange with white head. Nose is malts, wheat, orange and grass. Taste is sweet upfront - wheat, honey, orange, slight bitterness. Mouthfeel is light and crisp. Perfect for a hot evening.

Cloudy unfiltered golden body. Mild grainy sweetness, but otherwise clean malt, floral and a touch of grassiness. Good carbonation, mild zest on the finish.

Light straw gold in color. Incredibly clean and crisp. Super light bodied. The flavor isn't the strongest but at the same time I would not call this beer watery. One of the best pilseners I can remember having. Very refreshing.

Crisp and clean like Julie Christie in “McCabe and Mrs. Miller” after she takes a shower - we are talking well good! Imagine a gentle rain in your most favorite place on earth; that’s how light and clean this beer is. It does it right, and it does it well. Perfection! Well, with a Pilsner, can we go there? But damn good nonetheless.
