2 | Beer | Pilsner, United States

"....Smell is soft, malty & earthy. Mouthfeel is moderate with a malty, light hop, near sour effect....It is a well-crafted Sorghum brew....Natural, earthy, refined but uncomplicated....."

The original Chicago craft beer is back! "Its amber color, spicy hop-forward aroma, malty body, and creamy finish set this beer apart from all others. Its artful combination of only the finest ingredients–water, aromatic Czech and German Noble hops, a private strain of European lager yeast, and robust malts from the USA—make this beer a style all its own. Baderbräu Chicago Pilsener."

"Hops are abundant in this brew so the "faint of hops" may be caught by surprise. It takes a strong palate to tame a pilsner like this one."

"....Initial aroma is yeast, bread, with a light noble hop influence. Clean maltiness, grassy/earthy hop in the background lending a light bitterness....Very fresh taste...."

"Malty none the less, noble hop (Hallertauer and Tettnang) in the bitterness and flavor. Runs clean, crisp and dry. A choice American brewed pilsner."

"....Taste is crisp and sweet, very thirst quenching. A firm dryness also shows through to give a nice balance to this beer. Very drinkable....a nice session beer."

"....Taste is upfront sweet pale malt, which then switches abruptly to a nice hops flavor. Mouthfeel and drinkability are excellent. Wonderful example of the style."

"..In the fast paced craft beer movement lagers have been trying to catch up, Crisp is proof that things are turning around and gives a better view of what a modern lager can be ... taking from old while brewing from new minds.."
