detroiter (957), Euphoria, Minnesota, USA Mar 3, 2007 Reviewed from a 500 ml can. I refuse to buy this stuff in a bottle - I fear the skunk. Pours a clear brilliant gold, topped by half an inch of soft foamy white head. Subtle dry malt and mild spicy hops in the aroma. Mediocre head retention, slight spotty lace. Crisp clean taste, light dry cereal grain malt and crisp grassy herbal hop bitterness. Sweeter malt in the finish, with just a trace of honey. Body on the shy side of medium, moderate carbonation, excellent balance. I like this stuff on tap, and now in the can.
Wombler (27), , Greater London, England Oct 4, 2008 Tasted over in Prague on a visit. Nice headd and slightly hazy. Enjoyable for this style. Some sweetness in there and dry to finish. Ober (403), Best, Netherlands Oct 4, 2008 On draugt. A clear golden colored beer, with a nice thick white head. The aroma is malty, a nice touch of hops, with some flowers. The taste is smooth bitter, hoppy and touches of fruits. It has a long soft bitter aftertaste. DrSamPHD (17), Baton Rouge, Louisiana, USA Oct 2, 2008 Poured a light gold with a decently frothy head which was about 2 fingertips in width. A hoppy aroma with a very refreshing taste. Nicely balanced. Good beer. ewestern (110), Ohio, USA Oct 2, 2008 Golden color with a tint of orange to it, white head. Weak aroma but picking up some malts. Subtle malt flavor with spices. Bit of a bitter aftertaste with a peppery twist to it. Not bad as it warms up either. Sparky27 (600), Phoenix, Arizona, USA Oct 1, 2008 Bottle. Pours a clear gold with bid 4 finger snow white head that receded fairly quickly and resulted in very spotty lacing. Nose is malt, sweet corn and grassy hops. Taste is sweet malt, honey and grain with a decent pils bitter finish. Medium, creamy mouth feel. I’ve had this on tap before and it’s much better. Still decent in bottles.
