| 2.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Jan 1, 2004 Bottled. Maybe I'm just losing my taste for lagers or something, but this seemed totally bland to me, slightly grainy and honey-sweet, but really I can't think of anything else to say. I like this brewery a lot though so I'll probably give it a 2nd chance, in summer when it will fit my mood better. Gmku (254), Asheville, North Carolina, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Dec 31, 2003 Above average for a domestic brew in this style, but not terribly exciting. Nothing memorable in taste to make me search it out. ztrvz (218), st paul, Minnesota, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 28, 2003 sort of fruity, malty. boring... thin. there's just nothing special about this beer. bbrock81 (221), Le Mars, Iowa, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Nov 19, 2003 I found this to be a very pleasant, easy drinking beer. Maybe it isn't that exciting, but it's nice and malty, which I find very endearing. It looks nice: clear and light, and smells good: malty and mild. The taste is nearly balanced, perhaps just a bit more malty than it ought to be, but if you like that then you'll like the beer, as I do. One of the better offerings of one of the best breweries in the Midwest. Nexxus (261), Apple Valley, Minnesota, USA
| 2.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Oct 26, 2003 Pours a clear light amber with a quickly disappearing white head. Not a very strong, slightly apple, aroma, very thin flavor. Light on the palate. Im not even sure that this is beer the flavor is so weak. Look elsewhere.

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Oct 15, 2003 Has a slightly wort-like aroma. Medium golden appearance with a pillowy white head with decent lacing. Has a bit of a spicy flavor to it with a buttery mouthfeel and aftertaste. Not the most refreshing beer, but full bodied and true to the Helles style. hotstuff (3181), Indiana, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Oct 12, 2003 When poured, the head was average size, creamy, frothy with a white head that consisted of fine-small sized bubbles that was mostly diminishing. The body was uncarbonated and cloudy with a golden hue. The nose was malty, fruity, sweet and a hint of citrus. The flavor was sweet and a bit acidic with a slightly tingly smooth mouthfeel. It was light bodied with good lacing.
