P3 German-Style Pilsner pours a clear, golden color with a small but lacing head. The aroma is very light, with just a hint of potato. The flavor is very clean, crisp, bright cereals, and sweet, then finishes with a nice strong, gradual bitter. Good feel. Overall, there are very few frills, but lots of delightful pilsner flavors.

Canned 6/23/23; drank 7/2/23 @ the Yarchives.
See-through orange/yellow appearance.
A violent pour yielded a big white head; strong, frothy lacing remained.
Corn & mild honeyed grain notes in the nose.
Medium mouthfeel.
Honeyed grain, corn & mild rye flavors.
A bit...spicy? Good, not great.

16 oz can into a mug. Clear pale yellow/straw color with a foamy white head. Bready yeast and herbal hops on the nose. Tastes of doughy white bread up front followed by strong but not overwhelming herbal hop bitterness, ending with some smooth light malty sweetness. Great Pils!

Vibrant translucent gold. Sweet aroma. Great crisp and balanced flavors. Really enjoyable beer through and through, perfect for a hot summer day/evening.

poured from a 16oz can crowler into a new glarus dimpled mug. pours a straight-forward clear straw gold lager color with a finger and a half of fluffy white foam. strong German lager yeast on the nose. a bit of earthy noble hops on the taste to go along with the strong lager yeast. smooth, fuller mouthfeel. this is a solid offering. the P3 lager program is excellent and this is no exception.
