Our homage to Houston’s first award winning beer, this pre-prohibition pilsner has a crisp taste with just the right amount of European hops.

Not exactly sure what style to put this under? They call it a Southern Pre-Prohibition Pilsner. Though it does not have adjuncts. Not that that has to have one. but still not sure what exactly they are going for...
A: Pours with a light haze that eventually clears up. A pale yellow color. A small white head forms with some lace left behind.
S: There is a hoppy aroma here, that is not very aggressive, but noticeable. A fruity, citrus, strawberry kind of aroma. Kind of a soapy character as well.
T: Light grains, and then sweetness takes over. A soapy fruity character. Citrus and strawberry. With a light bitterness. Sweet and fruity for the most part. Not that there is an intensity of flavor here, but its all kind of muddled and odd for me.
M/O: A light to medium body. Moderate carbonation, and lightly soapy/oily. I would like this to finish drier as well. While I didn't have a problem drinking this, I can't say I would come back very often.
While I can't say this is what I really look for in a Pilsner, let alone a lager. I can't say its really bad, just...I don't know what they wanted to make? There is not a lot of lagerish character here. What is here, is a light fruity, soapy, sweet, hoppy character. That just makes it muddled and undefinable. Maybe somebody will like that? I don't know, but I wanted more of a Pilsner or classic pale lager.
