| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | May 8, 2009 Draft at Redlight. Tart aroma of citrus and other fruits. Thin mouthfeel with a nice hoppy punch and enough sweetness to balance. Light and refreshing for a full flavored beer. sheatripper (863), Brooklyn, New York, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 23, 2008 Bomber. Gold/light amber color. Light floral and herbal hop aromas. Slightly sweet but clean cereal malt flavor with an earthy and herbal hop backing. Seems to have a strange orange-come-licorice thing going on. Smooth carbonation. In the end, I was pleasantly surprised by this one. Decent citrusy hop balance in a medium-bodied lager. CheersMate1 (845), Atlanta, Georgia, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 29, 2009 22 oz. purchased at the local Whole Foods. I don’t know what drove me to purchase this beer, but I figure "what the hell?" Anyways, a nice thin head sits on top of this beer. It eventually fades away to a smaller almost non-existent head. Copper brown in color; this beer looks fairly decent. A fairly decent aroma of hops in this one. I was surprised by this, I was figuring there would be a lot more malts, but it is surprisingly hoppy. Not a very nuanced aroma, just hoppy, with some sublte malt sweetness i.e. a rather boring aroma, but still fairly pungent. Surprisingly hoppy as well. A very nice initial hop punch, with a very strong bittering hop that punches the back of my mouth. This beer has a subtle off-putting tea flavor, but it is VERY subtle. Hoppy beer with not a lot of malt action going on. Fairly straight forward, but not very interesting. mansquito (843), Boston/Philadelphia, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jun 16, 2009 Cloudy orange color with off-white head. Really hoppy and fruity aroma, but still lager. Tastes pretty close to an IPA. ots of citrus. Pleanty of hops. Overall pretty nice. drjay44 (818), Salida, Colorado, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Nov 1, 2009 22 oz. bottle. Pours a lasting white head, with loads of lacing, over a clear,golden (SRM 7) body....nose of bread, biscuit, yeast, grass.....taste initially cereal, then slight toffee, with light fruit (peach), then lingering light bitterness.....mouth feel is medium, carbonation low. This is a very nice Pilsner type, and an unexpectedly good beer. MaltDawg (778), Richmond, Virginia, USA

Aroma of carmelized pale malts with some grain. Clear light golden with moderate white head. Bit of lacing on the glass. Caramel or vienna style pale malt flavors with some fruity yeast notes. Bit of grassy floral hop flavor with moderate bitterness. Medium body body with moderate carbonation.
Finish is fairly sweet. hapjydeuce (773), Del Mar, California, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jul 29, 2008 Tasted at the PP Bottle Shop with wetherel and Sean. Golden yellow color, heavily carbonated with a white head. Grainy lager aroma with some hops spice and a touch of light fruits. Quite sessionable. Hangover (771), Atlanta, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jul 31, 2008 Clear golden pour with nice carbonation streamers and a lasting, creamy white head. Aroma has some nice hoppy notes along with some bisquit/bread. Pilsnerish flavor, spice, herbal saaz notes and a really clean malt background, toasty and grainy. Alcohol is there but muted. Basically a nice, freshly hopped, strong lager with a clean and crisp finish. All around great brew. Surprised it’s rated so low...
