What's better than a blue ribbon at the county fair? The Grand Champion purple ribbon of course! With your first taste you'll see why this beer is a no brainer for a purple ribbon. With it's crisp, light body balanced by a light dose of US Saaz hops, it's a refreshing everyday drinker.

L-Semi hazy golden color

S-Lean malt forward with herbal hop notes as well as some hay.

T-Crackery biscuit like malt flavor along a herbal hop impression.

F-Light side of medium bodied....light bitterness on the finish..

O-Based on the name I wasn't sure if this was just a knockoff of Pabst Blue Ribbon but it is definitely more of a true pilsner....a workman like pilsner and a good drinker. Not bursting with Saaz impressions but it's decent enough.
