Oct 13, 2009 33cl bottle. Small but persistent white head atop cloudy straw body. Aroma is medium sweet, pineapple, peach, some orange. Taste is medium sweet, grapefruit, peach. Light body, light acidity. As with so much of Mikkeller beers, not quite what one expects from a particular style, and while the difference isn’t necessarily an improvement, it certainly is tasty.

Oct 7, 2009 Pours a slightly hazy pale golden with a well-lacing froth of white head. Aroma of grassy Saaz hops and some pale biscuity malts. Starts with pretty decent fullness for the style and an effervescent carbonation with some light malty sweetness and a good balance of grassy slightly resiny hops before a drier, crisp bittersweet finish. A pretty true to style and drinkable pilsener.

Oct 5, 2009 Pours a clear golden color with a big loose white head. Aroma was fairly hoppy with a bit of an acrid note. Some grassiness and cut hay. Flavor was similar. Kind of muted, but kind of oddly bitter. Pretty decent, but might go better with a meal to help bring out some of the subtlety.
