Immediate sharp skunked malt waft emanates from clear-bottled pale-bodied pils. Severely dissipating lemony hop fizz lacks proper bitter bite. Mild tobacco leaf dryness and slurry plantain astringency fade to barren biscuit-y bottom. Cheap, drab, inconsequential.

HITE PILSNER
CORONA EXTRA PILSENER
The poor sister to Modelo Especial Pale Lager much like Busch is to Michelob. Typically light, watery, fizzy Mexican pils with agave splash mired by unobtrusive neutrality; skunked if warmed (so drink quickly!). Better canned version deletes dreary Tequila dash for richer grain husk and slight yellow fruit dalliance blue collar Americans favor. Try with lemon slice over seafood dinner.

PACENA CENTENARIO PILSENER
RINGNES PILSENER
Pungent gold-hazed premium pils with all-too-familiar Nordic yeast souring. Unlikely Mexican-related agave spicing and floral accents pique interest temporarily but overwhelmingly musty pilsner malting brings raunchy astringency. Barest hint of mocha found at ambiguous finish. Barely thicker, richer than most one dimensional pilsners.

TROEGS SUNSHINE PILS
WURZBURGER HOFBRAU PREMIUM BAVARIAN PILSNER
Insignificant musty hop-wafted, white fluffy-headed, light-bodied pilsner with dank yeast bitterness reminiscent of Holland brews such as Heineken or Peter’s Brand Pilsener. Flat carbonation, trifling citric souring, and watery flow don’t help. Bavarian? No. Closer to a bad white ale, perhaps. Try Killian’s version instead.
