Mar 21, 2007 Pale yellow with a thick layer of egg-white foam at the top. Crisp sherbet aroma with some faint bread dough. Grass comes through on tasting. Dry flavour with quite a wholesome bitter finish. Tasty and easily drinkable.

Mar 16, 2007 Clear, bubbly yellow with dense white head. Strong aroma of grass, straw, bread and a touch of citrus. Slightly sweet in flavor at the outset, but quickly turns pleasantly bitter. Crisp mouthfeel. Smooth and dry.

Mar 12, 2007 Bottle sampled. Pours pale golden with a white fizzy head. Aroma of grassy hops, skunk, and sweet malts. The flavor is slightly sweet, bitter, slight fruit. Decent brew.

Mar 11, 2007 Golden coloured, clear brew. Bitterness, a bit hoppy. Not that special, but enjoyable.

Blast of hops that do not seem to be the freshest--a little cheasy, rosiny, rancid oiniony. A touch of crisp maltiness comes through as the beer warms. Dark clear straw. Unpleasant bitterness comes in early and transcends the tasting experience through a generic noble hops flavour and maltiness. The bitterness and the hops combined into a sort of bitter, rancid onion flavour. I will not be trying this beer again. Typical German Pils feel, except for the persistant bitterness.

Mar 3, 2007 Hoppy Crisp and well made but boring. Had this this in Rottenburg. Page 251 of Michael Jackson’s Great Beer Guide only 359 out of 500 Classic Brews to go.

Feb 26, 2007 Pours like a translucent honey with a rapidly growing ivory white head. The hops hit my nose as soon as I cracked this open. German grassy, piney, skunky goodness for sure. A slight honey malt back balances the hops. This drinks really great - with a wonderfully light and refreshing mouthfeel. No harsh bitterness to slow things down either. Wow - this could be a new favorite summer session brew. This is the best German pilsener I have tried yet.
