Simpler Times Pilsner

12 oz can from Trader Joe’s – dirt cheap, may have only been around $1. Retro style presentation.
Pour as expected, gives a nasty looking, macro urine color with plenty of trapped, large bubbles. Head is very fluffy and light, but has little or no retention but does give surprisingly good, sticky lace on the glass.
Nose gives a neutral, light corn note and little else.
Tastes are bland and lack any kind of real, Saaz-like Pils bite – then again, I wasn’t exactly expecting much! Finishes with a lingering, bitter aftertaste and some residual sugary sweetness.
Pretty poor, and largely in-line with expectations.
