It pours yellow and it brillianlty clear. It has a white head with very good head retention. It features pils malt and spice. It is malty with slight herbal as well. It has a crisp finish.

Poured into a glass tumbler. No canned on date.
A: Pale clear gold hue with 1-2 finger frothy white head with good retention and several thin lines of lacing down the glass.
S: Honey and bready pale pils malt with small kiss of herbal-floral hops
T: Flavor is solid but is lacking in bitterness for the German pils style. This beer has low bitterness which hurts its crispness and drinkability. There are no off-flavors. The honey-bread pils maltiness is pleasing and the hop flavor is soft herbal noble hops. But the bitterness is lacking. it is clean and without major esters.
M: Feel is hurt a bit by the lack of a more assertive hop bitterness. Light-bodied but not as crisp or dry as it could be with more bitterness.
O: There is nothing wrong or off about Booneshine East Boone Pils, but with more bitterness, this beer could shine a lot brighter.

A: Pours a clear pale yellow in color with moderate amounts of fine active visible carbonation rising quickly from the bottom of the glass and faint straw yellow colored highlights. The beer has a two finger tall sudsy fizzy foamy bright white head that reduces to a large patch of very thin film covering a little more than 85% of the surface of the beer and a thin ring at the edges of the glass. Light amounts of lacing are observed.
S: Moderate aromas of bready malts with a very light amount of grainy sweetness with light aromas of grassy hops.
T: Upfront there are just shy of moderate flavors of bready malts with a very light amount of grainy sweetness. That is followed by light flavors of grassy hops which impart a light amount of bitterness which slowly fades away leaving a relatively clean finish.
M: Light bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation. Crisp and clean.
O: Easy to drink with well hidden alcohol and very refreshing. enjoyable with a pleasant light flavor and aroma.
