Jan 3, 2004 Lovely gold with nice white head that leaves lace on the glass. A well balanced and flavorful pilsner. Would be a great summer beer.

Dec 24, 2003 Soooo much better than Fat Tire, but still not great...
Pours a golden yellow with not much head but with all the carbonation it leaves behind a suprising amount of lacing.
Smells light and citrusy with a hint of hops.
Tastes okay but it's lacking something. There's a light taste of hops and a lemony hint of citrus, but for some reason I'm picturing apples
Mouthfeel is carbonated water. There really isn't much there.
Drinkability? I'd grab one if I was thirsty, yeah. And I could have several without problems. But there are too many better pilsners out there for the money.

Dec 20, 2003 Straw hue with fizzy white head and some lace. The aroma hinted of grassy and aromatic hops, biscuit, leathery yeast, lemon. The taste starts sweet with a monor bitter off-tone. A citric undertone shines through but quickly disappears to the light buttery malt and lingering bitterness. The mouthfeel was watery and not a crisp as would like in a pils. Okay I guess, nothing to seek out.

Dec 4, 2003 Bought a single of this just to try, but it was not all that interesting. Decent pils but I wish it had more snappy hops.

Nov 23, 2003 Updated: Nov 27, 2003This is a pretty good lager, but it's still a lager. The palate on this has a little more body to it than most of the watery lagers ive come across. Definatly not New Belgium's strongest effort.

Nov 17, 2003 Updated: Jan 21, 2004Bottle: Pours straw colored with a head that dissapated a bit quickly for a Pils. Upon tasting, all is forgiven; delicate flavor with malty backbone complimented by crisp, yet balanced hop bitterness. I will be buying this beer again. I have(at last) found a go-to Pilsner.

Nov 15, 2003 Wow this beer poured a monsterous white foamy head..massive..it settled down after 5 minutes thoughg..nice golden beer below..good looking pils.
the aroma is quite average for this type the noble hops..weak malts etc.
weird flavour throughout each mouthful..its not bad..just cant place it....odd bitterness not the usual Noble hop taste..well whatever its pretty good.
average in the mouth , nothing out of the ordinary.
A pretty drinkable but forgettable brew..ok i suppose.

Nov 11, 2003 Hrm. Pleasant light gold-amber. Not much head. Sweeter and maltier than I'd like but this seems to be a reasonably okay offering. I hoped for more.
