| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 25, 2002 Bitter and bland but a very drinkable beer. I liked it more than all of the other Petes products except for Oktoberfest. Not bad but not amazing. lovibond (112), New York, USA
| 2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 4/5 | 3/10 | 3/5 | 7/20 | Nov 18, 2002 Just doesn’t deliver! Drinkable, but extremely bland. I wonder if whomever formulated the recipe for this beer ever tasted any of the Helleses offered by Munich’s Big 6? It isn’t like any of them, lacking the subtly sweet maltiness and beautiful hops aroma that are the hallmark of a great Helles. krisfleet (130), Sharon, Pennsylvania, USA
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Nov 8, 2002 Not a big fan of the helles style. Not many different flavors going on with this beer. Pretty bland in my opinion. Most of the other Pete’s beers are much better than this one. Slick (1962), Thief River Falls, Minnesota, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 5/5 | 16/20 | Nov 5, 2002 not bad it’s definately different from what i’ve been used to having form pete’s I think a six pack more will help decide what place this holds in the petes collection OldJack99 (114), USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 24, 2002 A good lager PorterPounder (3147), Tallahassee, Florida, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Oct 24, 2002 Third sample of this style - best yet - very drinkable -something I could see drinking more than one of. Full-bodied malty flavor - golden appearance with a lot of bubble action. Malty aroma. Overall, not bad. GABeerMan (48), HOSCHTON, Georgia, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Oct 20, 2002 Not bad but I don’t like the style as much as some others. KingPinHead (390), Des Moines, Washington, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Oct 13, 2002 Aroma has a very light hop tang and faint sweetness to it...Color is a nice honey-gold color--head quite light though...Flavor is a light blend of a sweet malt base and mellow hoppiness, with very restrained carbonation, leading to a mildly dry finish. The light carbonation lets the well-balanced flavors through nicely, and the body is just substantial enough to satisfy. Overall, this beer is quite drinkable stuff, though a little "delicate" in character...I still found it quite enjoyable...
