Feb 23, 2004 Updated: Feb 23, 2008Fresh bottle thanks to BBB63: Pours a clear golden with a thin spotty-lacing white head. Mildly sweet with a lager yeast presence in the aroma and some noble hops. Decent balance of semi-sweet pale malt and earthy European hops toward a more bitter drier finish. Too dry and bitter in the finish, hurts the drinkability.

Feb 22, 2004 A really smooth easy to drink lager. Pours yellow and fizzy, with an aroma of wet grass and fruits. Sweet hop bite in the flavor, backed up by some biscuity doughy malt flavors in the finish.

Feb 22, 2004 Sample glass, RateBeer Southeastern Gathering. Nice fresh lager aroma. Very fresh and clean taste. Medium, creamy texture, lively carbonation. The bottom line is: freshness makes a world of difference with lagers.

Feb 22, 2004 This was a nice change of pace at the Atlanta gathering after many samples of BIG beers. A lager very similar to a European pilsner. Golden appearance with a nice head. Flavor was slightly bitter. Very clean and refreshing. This would make an excellent session lager when you are in the mood for something lighter.

Jan 15, 2004 This hazy golden-bodied lager is topped by a thin off-white head. Following the somewhat grassy, fruity aroma is an interesting flavor of various fruits (melon, molded peaches) and grassy hops that leave a lingering bitterness on the palate that somewhat detracts from the sweet, fruity malt characterics and perfumey nature of the otherwise light body. Rather unique, a toned-down hop profile would benefit this lager. Thanks Mike (BBB63) for the bottle!
