From the brewer

Pilsner, the world’s most popular style of beer, was invented in Czech Bohemia, perfected in Germany, and turned into flavorless mass-market fizz in America. In 1842, a Bavarian monk smuggled lager yeast from Munich to the Bohemian town of Pilsn where they used the yeast with British pale malt, crafting a beer golden in color. Chuckanut pilsner is truly mouthwatering, deeply satisfying, and refreshing! GABF Gold & Bronze medal winner!

Bitterness at the forefront this time.
Every time I have a pilsner craving, I am always disappointed and head back to stouts. This beer on the other hand made me glad I got a pilsner.
Slightly fruity malt lead, transforming into a nice saaz finish, a bit of lingeringing bitterness. Cereal flavors on the finish.
This starts out bitter, but fades into a full bready flavor only slightly bitter. It doesn't have the extreme clarity of a Czech pilsner.
Slightly breadier than my memory. Still good, but not as crisp.
Just about ideal German-style pilsner. Good cereal, slight grass, nice tang. Effervescent. Still as good as I remember!
Nice cereal body and slightly musty finish but the sweet cereal continues.
Crisp, funky (but not too much!), tasty lager.
