goozen (1061), Leiden, Netherlands Jan 24, 2007 Typical Dutch lager with some sweetness and golden look and nice firmy head. GreatLibations (1440), Last Supper, Arizona, USA Jan 22, 2007 Pours a pale golden color w/ a shallow spritzy froth that reduces to a thin lace. Aromas of malt and grain w/ a defined skunkiness. Light nectar w/ ample residual effers creates a cotton texture. Flavors are basic malts and grains but it does have the tell tale bitter finish of a Pils. However, not a recommendable specimen. sliffy (1966), Columbus, Ohio, USA Jan 21, 2007 Bottle: Clear gold with a white head. Aroma, it has that distinct imported green glass smell to it. I won’t elaborate, we’ve all been there. Flavor, tastes like nothing but that skunk in the room. So glad I picked this up. Saarlander (1577), Saarlouis, Germany Jan 15, 2007 Gold pour, lightly hopped, Malty, on the sweetish side, but very drinkable, average brew. BeerBelcher (930), Columbus, Ohio, USA Jan 14, 2007 I expected this green-bottled beer to be skunky (it wasn’t). Still, it seemed a bit thick for the style, and as far as "green bottle Euro lagers" go, I really prefer Pilsner Urquell.
It poured a handsome golden color with decent head formation, which left no lacing. It smelled good; not in a "big beer" sense, but it was light and refreshing. Taste and mouthfeel were not all that great though. It was thicker than I felt it should be, and not really refreshing at all. Taste was not off-putting, but seemed syrupy almost, which was not was I expecting (a light and refreshing lager). Bart (1625), Vosselaar, Belgium Jan 10, 2007 Golden yellow coloured, with an average white head, and some carbonation. Hoppy grassy and malty aroma; medium body. Finish is little bitter hoppy. Medium premium Lager. hagisu (42), Ontario, Canada Dec 31, 2006 Not much aroma or distinctive flavour. Almost neutral, very minimal hops. A weak pilsner as far as flavour and aroma are concerned. DruncanVeasey (2690), The Penguin’s Arms, Europe, Warwickshire, England Dec 23, 2006 Pleasantly skunky pale gold Pils not a million miles from Grolsch. Sweet malt, grassy hops and a touch of grainy biitterness in the finish. Not as blandly generic as expected.
