A fine pilsner, with a fresh, clean taste and a sprightly finish... I like this beer, but I'm not going to overate it (it is a German macrobrew, after all).

[bottle] Skunk aroma. Anything else is lost behind the skunk. Maybe it’s not fair, but if they put the beer in a clear bottle... Bright gold with a very thin white cover and some lace. Only a fraction of the skunkiness makes it into the flavour, but it is still there. This beer is like a toned down German Pils: gentle malt flavour and sweetness that is only a little bit flavoured with noble hops. Very mild bitterness. Watery and weak in all aspects (except the skunk, where any detectible amout is too much). Light body, moderate carbonation, skunky finish.

aroma quite faint and what i get is more stale beer than good beer. a little refreshing citrussy aroma if i really dig in. light yellow, white head. nice taste, not very strong not much hops, but a good sweet taste, tastes like beer. i like it. palate a bit watery, scores between 2 and 3. good macro.

50 cl clear bottle. Pours clear and pale yellow with a huge, chalk white, creamy and collapsing head. Bitterhops hand grassy aroma. Flavour is mild sweet corn and dry bitterhops. Slight cardboardish too. Ends dry and bitter. Clean yet boring.

Botella. Golden colour, fair medium white head. Mild malty bit hoppy aroma. Poor mouthfeel. The flavour has a mild bitterness with a rather mild maltiness. Boring.

<b>No 336</b><br /> <b>Rated: 06.03.2008</b><br /> <b>Bottle white, 330 ml</b><br /> <b>Appearance: </b>Pours very pale yellowish, wattery body with medium visual carbonation and initially small to medium head, slowly decreasing to minimum, white, lasting near the glass walls, gives some traces of lacing.<br /> <b>Aroma: </b>Very strong and rather disgusting skunkyness of hops, it is intensified by a vivid carbonation, very chalky at the background. I think I’ll have very nasty and parched aftertaste after drinking this very weak grains, dust, rather unfresh. I think even corn is present&#033;&#033;&#033; I wander how can they make a beer according to German Purity Low if it smells as cornflakes, it is really rediculous, they are making fun of this law of purity, repulsive.<br /> <b>Flavour: </b>Corn flakes with water, clean, aftertaste is grassy hoppy skunky and all in all very unfresh after you swallow it even though it seems initially fresh, strong bitterness on palate and corny - grassy nose. Dry and parched aftertaste, finish duration is average, citrusy, grapefruit.<br /> <b>Palate: </b>Body is light, texture is dry, carbonation on palate is medium, finish feel is chalky, dusty, dry, parched, skunky, with grassy hoppy nose and slight bitterness on your tongue.<br />
