Batch 114 Pilsner tasting notes

Cold

Pours light gold clear, slight haze, even lively white head that drops back to a thin layer, laces nicely.

Aroma bright hop crispness over mild malt bitterness, a little corn

Mouthfeel clean and bright, light-med body with no cling

Flavor pleasant hop spice bitterness without cloying or dominating, sweet malt flavor balances well, but carries a little corn with it.

Finish very clean hop bitterness, quite refreshing

Overall a hop-bitter balanced beer without much hop flavor/aroma, malt balances well, unsure if corn is from cheapo pils or fermentation.  Try with better pils and no diacetyl rest, pitch at lower temp.
