König Brewery Pilsener

**Aroma:** “Baked bread and honey, with a hint of toasted biscuit and freshly milled grain make for nice malt complexity. Light oxidized note with some sherry, and as it warms a hint of raisin emerges. Floral and piney hops, with a bit of skunk and dankiness.” **Flavor:** “The malt takes charge, but the skunkiness hits up front. Some lime, spruce needles, and light floral round out the hops character and carry through the finish with some spicy bitterness. Pilsner back end, with a sulfury dry finish.” **Overall:** “The malt and hops were nice, but a bit rough. The oxidized sweetness toward the end of the sip felt a little out of balance, but a touch more body would help round it out. The inviting bitterness with a combination of earthy and pine notes is reminiscent of a summer day in the forest.”

**Aroma:** “Very delicate at first, skunky, with some muscular German hops aroma that’s mostly floral. Behind that lies some cracker and mild bread sweetness. Earthy, sulfur tones, and spicy and earthy notes.” **Flavor:** “Skunkiness up front, followed by malty biscuit, honey, and cracker. Floral hops bring on some spice and bitterness, along with some lime. Good body and high carbonation create a nice bite at the end.” **Overall:** “Refreshing and welcome if you like the simple nature of this beer. Bright, light, and a little rough around the edges, but well-balanced with the hops and malt flavors.”

**Aroma:** “Light cracker sweetness, with some honey, Pilsner malt, spicy wheat bread, and subtle green vegetable notes. Delicate pine needles in the hops, with some spice, and could be stronger in the mix. Overall, a very light aroma.” **Flavor:** “The cracker-like malt is sweet, with notes of salt, biscuit, and Pilsner malt. Floral hops are present but aren’t too bitter, and further notes of spice, melon, and lime linger through the aftertaste. Clean and refreshing, what it lacks in complexity it gains in simple refreshment.” **Overall:** “Crisp and refreshing, with some nice malt sweetness. Makes for an easy-drinking beer that’s not too flashy, but never boring.”
