Notes:

Pours 1 finger of foam, golden in color, fairly clear. Aroma is typical pilsner - wheat and grapes - along with a bit of fruitiness. Flavor follows aroma but there is a slight bite at the end, not really bitterness but more of an acid crisp edge. Body is thin to medium and nucleation isn't sharp at all. Overall the flavor is perfect for what I want in a pilsner, which is mostly due to the yeast. The lack of real carbonation sucks and I don't understand it because I use carb drops. In any case, 3 out of 5 stars because, while the flavor is great, the carbonation really detracts.
