Golden strawyellow color. Aromas and flavors of lemon and lime gelato, orange blossom, and water cracker with a velvety, lively, spritzy, dry medium body and a compelling, medium-length finish manifesting notes of toast points, arugala salad, and toasted pine nuts. Light, crisp, flavorful, delicious and exactly what it should be.

Pilsners are pale to golden straw in color and range in alcohol from 4.5-6%. The hallmark of a fresh pilsner is a dense, white head. The alcohol levels must be such as to give a rounded mouthfeel. These beers are medium-bodied and are characterized by high carbonation and tangy Czech and German varieties of hops that impart floral aromas and a crisp, bitter finish. This style originated in Bohemia in the Czech Republic. German pilsner styles are similar, though often slightly lighter in body and color. Noteworthy examples of this style include: Pilsner Urquell, Paulaner Premium Pils, Brooklyn Brewery Brooklyn Pilsner and Victory Prima Pils.
