| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Sep 19, 2007 Pour was a crystal clear gold color propping up a scant white head. Not much lacing. The aroma was malt, grass, roasted corn, light hints of floral. The flavor was a nice balance of sweet, roasted malt that transitioned nicely into a combination of light floral and spicy saaz hops. Mouthfeel was very nice and the finish was clean and succinct. A great session beer. Hope I get another chance to drink one of these again! larsga (2992), Oslo, Norway

Golden color, not much head. Buttery, Czech-type hoppy nose. Crisp, Saaz-hoppy flavor, a bit sweet and buttery. Slighlty flat mouthfeel. Maybe a bit too simple, but tasty pils anyway. Ungstrup (15421), Frederiksberg, Denmark
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Jul 23, 2007 Bottled. A golden beer with an OK off-white head. The aroma is sweet with notes of grain and hops giving it light grassy notes. The flavor is sweet grassy and malty with notes of grain, leading to a crisp and quite bitter finish, but the body is a bit on the thin side. Kalli (480), Falun, Sweden
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jul 23, 2007 Hint of roastiness is surprising. Aroma is a bit grainy. Straw coloured and holds that small head nicely. Gr0ve (1422), Oslo, Norway

Throws a tall white head that is a mix of coarse and fine bubbles. Head clings to the glass. Rich rounded maltiness that is balanced by really crisp hops. Grains in the nose. Crisp malt flavour and a sharp, but not too strong, hop bitterness. Chewy malts with some sweetness. Nice mellow maltiness towards the finish. A bit minty perhaps. Long lasting nice crisp hop bitterness and a little grass flavours. Nice pilsener.
