Originally brewed in Austria and Germany, smooth golden lager maintains slick honeyed malt inertia, sweet corn-sugared cereal-grained dalliance, and mild hop-spiced lemon zest. Mild multigrain breading and biscuit-y finish add to light-bodied goodness.
Taking into account its 'sell by' date was overdue by December '04, possibly deterring mediocre Czech lagers' chances, its butterscotch tingle and oily popcorn backdrop form musty yeast-soured center. Brisk Saaz hops enliven minor citric zest.
Unassuming pale-blanched white-headed lark bends sweet malt stickiness into dull sour candy dreck and mild grassy hop bittering, barely beating out watery American macrobrews.
Pale-hued caramel-scented blonde juxtaposes rich malt extract and dainty honeyed yeast sinew against dry-hopped lemon-grapefruit tang. Despite light-bodied appearance, this relates better as dark ale than soft pils.
Sturdy clear golden white-headed German bitter fits classic dry-hopped pilsner tradition. Pungent hop oils counter corn-sugared wheat gluten to clean-watered salty bottom. Minor perfume, floral, and herbal illusions impact doughy midst of medium-bodied moderation.
Simple fizzy-hopped barleycorn thrust and honeyed lemon stridency end up flat and dull for arid Czech-styled pilsner. Only light-hearted macro-pilsner fans need apply.
Elegant peppery hop bittering, concise barley biscuit easement, and mild floral-spiced carouse reach sedate crystal malt finish. Pleasantly sugar sweet and perfect for softer palates, even if it's a bit slight for more robust thirsts.
Bright citric hops introduce barley-saddled dry pilsener. Initial impression is it tastes like ginger ale, due to well-carbonated herbal evanescence and barren honeyed sweetness. But mild grain bitterness erases such thoughts. A simple pleasure.
Aromatic mineral-grained lightness more typical of moderate-bodied American pilsner draught than most casual Euro brews. Creamy English-style barley-malt saturation, moldy bread scant, and citric slip embittered by grassy hop swathe, assuring well-balanced versatility perfect for Bud drinkers yet to discover the beauty of a true handcrafted lager.
Fizzy-hopped butterscotch opening fades to cardboard as shaky pumpernickel-rye confluence, bleached orange-grapefruit bittering, and nebulous tangerine souring give in to unresolved phenol spicing.
Extinct fruit-centric hop-spiced golden pils retained billowy white head and went down smooth as delicate wheat-barley fabric maintained pleasant moderate restraint.
