Yes there are two reviews today! Lucky you! I picked this up today, after contemplating buying it several times only to decide on something else. This is a seasonal brew from Wild Rose, and it's rather fitting as a pilsner seems to suit summer.
Foothillz Pilz is a Czech style pilsner. I'm not too familiar with the pilsner style. I've had a few pilsners in the past (Heineken and Czech Mate by Paddock Wood) but I don't remember too much about them and I'm not too sure what distinguishes a great pilsner from a mediocre one.
Poured into the glass, Foothillz is quite pale and developed a very large head that persisted for a while. It made getting to the actual beer a bit challenging, but eventually I got to it.
The first smell I got was hops and it was just a faint smell at that. There is a decent hit of hops in this beer. To be honest I really couldn't taste too much else. The hops isn't overwhelming, but the lack of other flavours was a bit of a surprise. Despite the lack of complexity it was a crisp refreshing beer.

May your glass always be full of good beer!
