Apr 22, 2006 NOt as good as the Robertus, but is very nice, a little flavourless after some drinks due to the strong taste.

Apr 17, 2006 Bottle...slightly past date, but packaged in a gift set box, so very little light exposure.
Hazy golden pour, very thin white head. Sweet malty aroma with hints of grassy/herbal hops. Full bodied with a nice crisp, dry finish. Slightly bitter, very well balaced and refreshing.

Mar 30, 2006 Piscator hit the jackpot with this one. I realize that my rating will not do this beer justice, but it is fantastic. Unreal hops for a Pilsener. Thanks for the birthday gift.

Mar 15, 2006 Pours hazy golden with a decent sized white head. Aroma of hops, sweet malts, and citrus. Flavor is smooth, sweet, malty with a slight hoppy bitter, dry finish, not bad, but nothing great.

Mar 13, 2006 Bottled sample. Golden in colour with a slight amount of haze and string carbonation. Strong German noble hop aromas, with notes of grass, spices, and menthol. A fair bit of heft in the body. There’s a good malty punch to go with the grassy hop flavor and bitterness. A little bit of a yeasty note in there too, but it’s mild enough for it to come of as "character" rather than a flaw. Somewhat homebrew-ish, but I like that. Good stuff.

Mar 8, 2006 21 Feb 06 - Light sweet fruit aroma. Cloudy light brow-yellow colour with poor head and suds lacing. Some sweetness, big hoppy but simple flavours. Malty hoppy, light bitter finish. Too much hops for me, especially for a blond.

Mar 4, 2006 Bottle. Brown gook on flip top. Beer looks like apple juice/thick cidery (mebbe lots of yeast). Dutch beer that tastes like it apparently conforms to reinheisgebot because it’s a province close to Germany. Fun to drink a beer that has a recipe it does due to importation regulations of hundreds of years ago? Sharp cheese palate bite, fresh yeasty water, salted with hops and a light crisp barely. White head. Quite a nice little wonder - I imagine I’ll be drinking many of these this summer, and then start homebrewing my own in the flip tops! Very, very nice for a pilsener, probably the best I’ve had to date. Might help convert beerophobes that imported stuff is worth it.
