Commercial Description:
A truly great Pils, a little maltier and more ‘Bavarian’ than the rest. The 6-packs are brand new for the American market.

Found this bottled in an import multi-pack at World Market in St. Charles, Illinois. Clear, light yellow pour with a thick, foamy off white head, grassy hoppiness in the nose, slightly sweet, with a bit of raspberry and baked bread, and a muddled finish. For a pilsener, this actually has character, but it’s still not my style.

Bottle from BevMo. Clear golden in color. Grassy aroma with some graininess. Somewhat sweet and malty. A little bit of bitterness in the finish. Refreshing pils. Easy to drink.

This is a medium-priced average looking beer. It has a light color and produces a nice head. It feels very clean and crisp in the mouth and has just a hint of bitter. This beer goes very well with a late night salty snack. The first bottle I had won’t be the last.

330-ml bottl.. Pours golden-yellow w/ a two-finger fluffy, white head. Considerable amounts of soapy drizzle was left down the side of the glass... Aromas of grass, grains, and a slight citrus (lemon rind). The flavor is a mix of the above, with the sweet malts dominating the front and the bitter hops balancing out the finish. The beer was light to medium bodied with moderate carbonation. It was very refreshing and cleansing on the palate. Very enjoyable!

(Bottle). Aroma is very slightly malty. Color an extremely light yellow/gold. White head, moderately lasting. Watery, uninteresting flavor, almost no bitterness. Not much better than below par macro lagers.

Poured from the bottle into a pint glass. Pour produced a yellow-golden body topped by a medium head of white foam, which was densely packed and slowly diminished. Aroma was light grain and a bit hard to coax out. initial flavor is bitter, with a moderate sweetness following. The progression from bitter to sweet is interesting an unexpected. The palate is slightly astringent, though not wholly unpleasant. I was mistakenly given this beer by a neighbor, who thought it was one of mine left over from a party. I don’t know where it came from, but I don’t regret the mistake of free beer.
