Hazy golden body with medium sized, frothy white head. The nose is well balanced blend of doughy, honey malt and earthy, herbal hops. The taste is just about perfect. Just a touch of sweetness, lots of bitterness, very hop forward with a nice taste of spicy herbs. Malts are doughy with a touch of cotton candy and honey. Finishes with clean yeast and solid, lasting bitterness. Medium body is round and smooth with moderate, tight carbonation. Brilliant. An absolute classic. Bullit (1392), Glasgow, Scotland

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 8, 2008 Updated: Aug 23, 2009my original impression of this beer was that it was not all that. I have since tried it again and it has come up a few notches for sure. Has a light fruitiness on the nose and has a a sweet fruitiness in its taste also. It is a nice easy drinking and refreshing brew. Not anything over the top and, if my memory serves me, is a little overpriced. All in all a decent brew and considering the style has a little more to it than your prototypical pilsener Jan Primus (160), Waterloo, Ontario, Canada
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jun 8, 2008 Pours a hazy somewhere between yellow and orange, with a mammath head that needed sometime to subside before I could get at her. Taste is quite sharp, dry hoppy goodness...so refreshing, nice bitter finish. A great summertime brew, I don’t expect to find a better pilsener than this.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jun 5, 2008 330mL bottle from the LCBO. Pours very foamy, murky orange with a huge head. Nose is pretty much standard floral hops, but taste is delicious, most floral pilsner I’ve ever had, even notes of lavender. Smooth, lightly carbonated mouthfeel. Excellent. bhensonb (4371), Woodland, California, USA

Light stone fruit aroma with a hint of citrus. Rather bitter and fruity flavor. Something of citrus rind. Finishes nicely bitter. Refreshing. Ported (67), Ontario, Canada
