Jan 17, 2003 I liked this as a lighter, summer version of the basic Karl Strauss. I'll get another case next year.

Jun 8, 2004 I find this to be a very fine, refreshing Lager. It is malty, though it does have a subtle, hoppy aftertaste. Pours a beautiful golden color with a medium white frothy head. Nice, but not huge, lacing. An excellent Lager overall. I’ve only tried the bottle, I should get my lazy butt down to Karl’s and give it a try on tap!

Sep 13, 2001 This was a fine beer. A very crisp and refreshing taste. I didn’t notice the robust malt character, but it was a good beer. The best I’ve had yet from Karl Strauss.

Jun 16, 2004 Bottle: Pale yellow fizzy beer with a small white head. Liight aroma of lemon and a hint of grass. Flavor starts sweet followed by tangy citrus spicyness and a nice dry finish. Not too shabby for a pils.

Nov 23, 2003 This brew pours with a clear golden body topped by a medium thick white head with some lacing left behind. The aroma is slightly sweet, malty and fruity (apples, pears) with a slight grassy hop note. The flavor is sweet, malty and fruity (pears) with a grassy hop note and a slight yeastiness. Light bodied, tingly from the carbonation and slightly dry.
