King's Oak Pils
Modern Brewery

 

From a 16 ounce aluminum can, this beer is a cloudy yellow color with a tall and dense white head. The aroma is earthy, with a malty and bread quality that mixes in. Some floral notes creep in, but not as much as I'd expect. The taste is soft with a pale malt quality. Firm hop bitterness in the midtaste linger through the finish. Flavorful and engaging.

Pale straw hue with dense, slow-rising small-bubble carbonation; thick, dense, foamy white head. Outstanding scent; light malt infused with a delicate pome fruit note. The taste builds upon the aroma; light biscuit malt backbone with a well-balanced hop bitterness offset; mild esters tickle the palate. Medium-light mouthfeel; soft and powdery soft; wispy dryness plays nicely with the gentle residual sugar feel.

This is just a phenomenal German-style pilsner, Well-balanced and complex with an quintessentially quaffable quality.

ABV: 4.8%; pouring temperature: 54.1 ℉; canning info: 3/12/25

I'm trying this beer off the tapper at the brewery as part of a four sample flight. It poured a clear golden with thin white head that is leave some lace. The scent had grain and fruit notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with bright malt base with subtle fruit and grain blend presence. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall its a great beer.

Had on tap. Pale yellow cloudy body with a finger of pearl white foam. Bready yeast, sweet malt, lemon, grass, and pressed flowers in the nose in that order. Taste brings pale hops with grass and lemon zest up front and center, supporting yeast is bready, malt is pale but has a hint of sweetness too. Light yet very crisp and dries out nicely, not as pale as it tastes.

16oz can. Poured out a clear, straw-yellow color with a small, white head of bubbly foam. It left sudsy trails of lace on the glass. It smelled of caramel, toffee, bready malt and floral notes. It tasted of toasted bread, caramel and a subtle bitterness.
