| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Apr 22, 2004 Keg Blond color; nice lace. Some hop aroma, quite nice. The taste has a grain character, not enough malt. Long and strong bitterness but not as much aromatic as the aroma suggested. Joeh (1908), Buckinghamshire, England

Wow, this is a good pilsner. Slight malt, slight hops, sweetness with a really bitter finish. Ungstrup (15382), Frederiksberg, Denmark
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Apr 20, 2004 A yellow beer with a fine dense head. The aroma is very sweet with notes of honey, straw, and malt. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of straw and a very bitter end. Quite nice for a pilsener. MilkmanDan (1940), Eagan, Minnesota, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Apr 18, 2004 Light gold with a big head. Nose is hoppy and sharp, mildly citric. Bit of hops in the flavor, sweet and a bit malty. beastdog75 (337), Brick, New Jersey, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Apr 16, 2004 I thought this brew was going to be mega-hoppy and bitter. While it is hoppy, it doesn't overtake the beer and is actually pretty well balanced. More like a Czech pilsener. Some citric flavors are there to a light extent, but the hops impart more earthy/grassy and impart some bitter root/herb like flavors. Interesting brew.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 5/5 | 13/20 | Apr 15, 2004 Updated: Aug 5, 2008Piss yellow color with nice sized white head. Smells like a bag of Pilsbury flour. Taste has a raw barley thing going on like someone forgot to add the hops to this batch. Very tasty though. Dixen (1465), Flagstaff, Arizona, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Apr 9, 2004 Yellow to golden lager look-a-like, good looking. Kind of weird malt and herbal aroma. Flavor is absolutely magnificent for a pilsener, vague malt presence with a good ol' kick of fresh hops! Very nice pilsener... May be my favorite... ToolHead (235), Frederiksberg, Denmark
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Apr 7, 2004 33 cl bottle, served in generic tulip beer glass.
Golden colour; OK head. Aggressively and refreshingly hoppy and herbal aroma. The same goes for the taste, which is wonderfully bitter and crisp w/ a long, firm finish. Highly drinkable.
One of my favorite pilsners, this beer is a revelation to the drinker who's grown accustomed to bland, anonymous lagers. Highly recommended.
