| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Jun 10, 2008 Pours a clear bright golden with a wispy-lacing white head. Aroma of light sweet grainy pale sugary malts and some musty grassy hops. Body starts somewhat thin and semi-sweet with earthy bittering hops and a semi-dry, smooth finish. Very drinkable, but bland. thejon375 (392), Tampa, Florida, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jun 9, 2008 Average pilsner would not go out of my way to get it. Light in color and almost lacking some complexity I think it should have. presario (2987), Calgary, Alberta, Canada
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jun 5, 2008 Crisp gold. There was a nice head for a split second. Not much for scent. Flavour has a bit of a darker side. Lots of cookie flavour. Some grain. A bit of darker malt. Hop flavour grows on you after a few sips. pnista (1008), Bloomington, Indiana, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | May 31, 2008 Light golden yellow with a thin white head. Paste prime peppery hops. Light malt. Clean, not all that skunky. Creamier side of refreshing. Past prime Saaz style hops. Drier and crisper. Peppery slightly sweet finish. grant (792), Long Beach, CA/Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 27, 2008 Medium-tinted gold, light head articulation. Doughy malts with a rather jagged, raspy huskiness, light herby hops. Clean malty flavor, again with that raspy branniness. A little gloppy, and not quite enough hoppiness to balance it out. Lightly perfumey hops in the flavor, a little bit of honey. Quite drinkable, but this weird malt note keeps popping up. Body is quite thick, the finish a little sweet. luvcasks (178), USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | May 26, 2008 pours a nicely burnished golden color with a finely beaded white head.
Nose: soft base malt, hay like notes, smell of crushed grains.
Palate: Light bodied - not too long lasting flavor - back of tongue woody bitterness.
Flavor: Quick sharp burst of grainy notes followed by cracker like dryness and woody/earthy hop bite. The hop bite seems to linger and makes the beer refreshing.
Overall: Something different - I would imagine this can be better - the sample I had was not too fresh and seems to have an oxidized note. The yeast notes are really nice the with a faint hint of diacetyl - Seems lie note666 (288), Eindhoven, Netherlands
