Pours a clear golden straw with fluffy white head. Nose of lime zest and freshly cut grass. The bready doughy backbone is prominent and unique, the Saphir hops provide a nice zesty lime character. A good Pilsner, refreshing.

16 oz Can. Pilsner Glass. 15 days fresh.
A: Pours a clear straw yellow. One finger of white foamy head. Moderate amount of carbonation. Okay retention with no lacing.
S: Grains. Malt. Fruits. Grass. Smell like a Pilsner.
T/M: Bitter dry hops with a hint of fruits. Solid malts. A little spice with some grains and such. Crisp with a nice carbonation tingle. The finish is dry with a little linger of bitterness. Great drinkability.
O: An above average Pilsner. Nice hop flavors. Easy to drink. Try it.
Cheers!!

Poured a semi cloudy golden color with a two finger head in a Pilsner glass.
Mild aroma of fruit and malt.
Excellent taste which broadens with warming. Lots of fruit, more than other Pilsners I have tasted recently.
Dry, crisp, more sharp bitterness, more than in other Pilsners I have tasted.
I like the accentuated fruit and bitterness in this beer. Best warmer: 45°+.

A bit past prime I presume
Look is a bit cloudy for a pils. Straw yellow, with a white head that dissipates rapidly to to white film
Smells of biscuits and wort
The biscuit and wort persist in the taste. Mild hops. Still pretty good.
Nice carbonation and dry finish
Overall pretty good. My home pils is Suarez Palatine Pils so hard to beat
