My second best Pilsner. See 2. Lost the sweet grainy flavour. Now very similar to Stella. Blind tested friends with tin of actual Stella in mugs. Very similar in taste but without the taste of tin. Mine Very slightly sweeter / richer in flavour without the tin tang. All preferred my beer than the Stella. Never did fully clear but I did drink it all before it could lager.
Needed time to lose its grainy flavour, a bit sweet. Clean refreshing tho. I was a bit disappointed; However I tasted a tin of Stella along side and the tin tasted really awful. Made me feel better about my own version.
