Golden amber body with a good sized white head that fades (3+ Moderately hoppy aroma, modest resin and ephemeral citrus notes. Pleasant bitterness up front tin the flavour picks up a slowly building alcoholic hitch hiker that is a touch distracting, but not as prominent as it could have been. Pleasant lingering hops have pleasant resin and ambiguous citrus notes. Average plus palate. (3+) Pretty decent. Bottle shared by HogTownHarry Walt (2289), Chicago, Illinois, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Apr 10, 2008 Bottle (750ml corked and caged). No ClowGr’s tasting, shared with blankboy, jerc, mabel and tupalev, My bottle, ’cause we can’t finish the night on friggin’ Blue De-Alcoholised Pilsener. BB Dec 13/09. Steady, now - the urge to rate this about 4.5 is very strong. Hazy light orange-amber, large lasting mottled beige/off-white head. The aroma - yes, alcohol, yes grassiness, but I’m getting some solid pine/citrus zest hops in there, and an odd fruitiness that really appeals. Taste - grassy, boozy, crisp and dry, sharply bitter and a long, long finish - we need more GOOD examples of this style (on the bottle is says "malt liquor"). Crisp, light, alcoholic, astringent to the nth - big and grassy, and well-made and thank you guys for helping me drink 750ml of this big bugger. badlizard (2343), Berkeley, California, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Apr 5, 2008 Courtesy of Beerlando. Pours a lightly hazy orange, with a small white head. Smells of pretty profound hops, some light citrus fruit, with a small malt presence. The flavor is moreprominent in its malt character as they take the forefront. A little bit grainy, but not annoyingly so. The hops are also definitely noticeable and all seem to join pretty well together to make up this beer’s identity. Another solid offering from this brewery. hopscotch (5472), Vero Beach, Florida, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Apr 4, 2008 Bottle… GIABMISGFAB… Murky golden lager with a small, fizzy, white head. The earthy aroma provides pale grains and misplaced PNW hops. Medium-bodied with fizzy carbonation. Nice bitterness; very pilsener-esque. Sweet finish is a touch salty and fairly crisp. Thanks to Beerlando for bringing this brew along with him! thomat (666), Göteborg, Sweden
