L- Pale gold, pours with a tiny hint of haze and a 2mm white head.
S- Mild, to say the least. It's possible I've congestion but it's shocked to be able to get zero smell from this beer, not even grains. Hmmm.
T- It has some decent hopping, and I see the hops are listed as Saaz and Hallertau mittlefruh which should yield an authentic Bavarian or Bohemian Pilsner profile.
F- CO2 in the mouth is good. It also has some body, it's not super-dry or austere (Pilsener Urquell can risk going down that path IMHO).
O- For a beer that seems to have the authentic ingredients I'm a bit puzzled how it's not doing much for me. It hasn't a discernable character, something I'd remember it by. It's not (at all) as hoppy dry as Urquell, it hasn't got that very elusive sense that the stars have all aligned as with Czech Budweiser. There seems to be nothing here to give reason to buy it again.
330ml can. Canned 08/07/20, BB: 08/11/20 [Batch 213]. Bought from Real Ale, London W9, £2.60.
