Stong noble hops aroma with a sturdy Vienna malt presents. Really quite bitter, with a pleasant toasted sweetness up front. Finish is dry and crisp. I never thought I’d want to live in Cleveland.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 5, 2006 A good golden lager, I agree with larryg, it does seem very german. Golden color as was expected, tastes like a very balanced blend of hops and malt. A good beer, but Great Lakes has better offerings larryg (8), chicago, Illinois, USA does not count | 4.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 19/20 | Nov 3, 2006 really like this golden lager. seems very german, like the bitburger i had in munich a few years back. great color and good foam. perfect balance of hops,malt & yeast. american beer at its finest. its not the best beer ive ever had but for its style its really good. went really well with the fish fry i had too. gavygavgav (7), Michigan, USA does not count | 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Oct 27, 2006 Golden color, good-sized head. Sweet flaver for a lager. Also more body than most lagers. Perfect lager for those who aren’t crazy about lagers! Sregnar35 (730), Rotterdam, New York, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Oct 15, 2006 (draft @ The Aspinwall Grille - Aspinwall, PA) Clear gold in color with a thick and lasting white head. Aroma is nice and bitter with some floral hops and a touch of cookie dough. Flavor is very bitter and crisp at the beginning with a smooth and hoppy middle and a dry and bitter floral hop finish. Finishes like a really nice pils. loomis (43), Ohio, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Oct 14, 2006 Nice. Pleasant. Crisp. Very carbonated. Doughy for being relatively light, but has a complex almost browned pizza crust finish. Great. lovemyipas (420), sw burbs, Illinois, USA
