| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Oct 4, 2009 Malty and thick, this has a pretty lengthy lingering flavor of "uper pils." Your imagination dictates the flavor. Thick euro beer, but good. Bottle at Total Wine and More, North Miami Beach. milewide (625), Grand Rapids, Michigan, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 24, 2009 Bottle. Poured a slightly hazy golden color with a small off white head.

Finishes with hops bitterness and slightly spiced. GeneralGao (3079), Iowa City, Iowa, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 22, 2009 Bottle from trade with nearbeer. Thanks! Poured a clear light orange color. The head was one finger high and off white. Smelled of pale malt, hay, and subdued noble hops. Medium bodied and slightly sweet. I tasted bready malt, a touch of honey, and supporting noble hops. Decent, but didn’t knock my socks off. Parrothead (187), Ephrata, Pennsylvania, USA

Very rich, somewhat heavy. Very tasty, but more a bock than a pils. Would like to try on tap to get a better opinion. daknole (3032), Scottsdale, Arizona, USA

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 19, 2009 Serving: Draft.
Appearance: Clear gold with a small, foamy, white head. Pretty decent lacing left behind.
Aroma: Very grainy, light grassy and spicy hop notes.
Flavor: Heavy on the alcohol and grain. Fruity with notes of white grapes. A little wood and a good dose of malt sweetness. A bit unbalanced, but not bad.
Palate: Medium carbonation with a medium mouthfeel and a medium, grainy and alcohol finish.
Overall: The taste is okay, just a little rough around the edges. Still, it does have good drinkability. Remind me of a malt liquor.
