500 mL Can. 5.2%. Clear, pale yellow pour with a weak white foam that fizzes away quickly. Aroma is sweet malts, grains. Taste is mild floral hops, more sweet malts, and quite grainy on the finish, which is dry, but crisp. Mouthfeel is bubbly, but satisfying.

Can, 50cl. Pours a yellow beer with a white head. The aroma is almost non-existing. The flavor is boring pilsner. The palate is refreshing and overall a boring beer.

Canned:
Pours pale golden with a fluffy and weak head. Sweet and grainy apple juice aroma. Faint malt sweetness is overrun by a sourish apple flavour. Citrus and grass finish. Mass produced crap.

This German classic never disappoints. Powerful taste and a nice overall feel. No wonder this is an acknowledged beer worldwide.

Not very good. Had to have one because my childhood neighbors had named their dog after it - a crotchety, crippled blood hound.

500ml can poured into a pint glass. Poured a clear yellow with a big 2" head which was lasted a few minutes. Decent lacing. Sweet aroma hits first with some grassy hops in the background. Flavor has some sweetness up front and some bitter hops at the end. Good balance but it’s just a bit light. Average macro lager feel. Good carbonation with a crisp finish. This is a very drinkable beer.

Pours a golden yellow with a medium white head. It has a lightly sweet but overall nondescript aroma. It tastes of sweetened corn malt with a slightly bitter hoppy aftertaste. However, the malt is definitely the leading star of this beer. It has a slightly effervescent mouthfeel. Good beer.

Thanks 17thfloor! Pours a light clear golden yellow with a nice thick pillowy white head. Aroma is nice a spice with a good bit of pils malts. A bit metallic or funky smelling over the grassy and floral character. Flavor starts with a good bit of cookie like sweet maltiness. Gets very grassy before a slightly bitter and grainy finish. Dry light to medium body and a fairly soft carbonation. Middle of the pack at best with that sort of weird off flavor.
