Jul 24, 2006 Bottle: Poured a light yellow color lager with a big foamy head with average retention. Aroma of dry malt is quite accentuated with very little hop. Taste is also dominated by dry malt with some very subtle lingering sweetness. Body is slightly above average. Would have love a bit more floral aspect to the malt as well as some crisp hops. Overall this is an OK beer but I was expecting a bit more.

Jul 19, 2006 Golden body -- thin soapy head. MALTS! lots of them, over a sweet head and a sharp after taste. Flowery and smooth. Nice, cool, fresh. Surprisingly good but I’ll need to have a few more D/Helles before I can truly compare. For now I’ll give it a safe rate due for a re-rating in the future.

Jul 12, 2006 Bottle - 650ml. Nice golden body with average carbonation and a thin white creamy head. Decent malty/hoppy nose with bready and flowery hints. Its one-dimension taste is dominated by maltiness, and ends with a short bitter finish. Fair Dortmunder.

Jul 10, 2006 Dark gold with decent white head. Toasted malts and green bitter hop aroma. Medium bodied lager with more of malty base with green bitter, earthy aftertaste. Maybe there were some medicinal notes as well. Drinkable brew.

Jul 9, 2006 650ml Bottle, 5.5% a/v
Pours a cloudy light brown colour with a thin white head. Nose is faint (i had a stuffed nose, maybe its not?) but smells of malty tones. The taste is slightly grainy but also with hints of metallic flavours.. Strange for sure, not altogether bad but not great.

Jul 7, 2006 (650ml bottle) Pours a medium, almond-coloured head with a deep amber body. I wrote that the nose is "grassy" and "assy" - all in all an unpleasant. It does have the subtle malted lager flavour but there is a straw or grass flavour with undertones of tin that makes it uncomfortable to swallow.

Jul 3, 2006 Bottled. A little bit funky on the nose, but a very strong candi-like malt presence, spice and orange notes and a crisp, low-carbonated body make this a pleasant brew. Just needs some more hops to distinguish it, from where I stand.

Jul 2, 2006 Tasted in large stein, obtained from LCBO - 650ml bottle. Appearance is deep golden / amber with thin white sustained head. Aroma is malty sweet, with a grassy / grainy scent. Upon tasting the beer seems somewhat flat, has a sweet taste, maltiness personified, but kind of like a cheap corn sweetness also, found in big macro lagers.
