| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Feb 19, 2009 33cl bottle. Almost dull gold in color, with a lasting white head. Grassy and spicy hop aroma, with some sweet pale malt as well. You can tell there is Saaz in this for sure. Clean malty flavor that is a bit sweeter than german pilseners that I’ve had. The hops also seem a bit less bitter, but give a nice spicy balance to the malt. Light, smooth, and almost oily texture. This is a really clean, drinkable pilsener, but could use some more hop bitterness to tame the malt and make it even easier to session. FrankJohansen (3399), Århus-Randers Crew, Denmark

Aroma is classic pale lager like yet with a light hoppy presence. Flavour starts also quite classic pale lager like but releases some nice citrusy hops notes into a mild bitter and quite tasty finish. Nice and easy, slightly more hoppy than the average pale lager/pilsener Flamojune (93), Ville de Quebec, Quebec, Canada

| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Dec 15, 2008 11.2 oz. bottle courtesy of trade with dkachur. Pours a clear gold with a thin-moderate white head that quickly morphed into an uneven film and completely disappeared moments later. There are lots of fat carbonation bubbles rising to the surface and clinging to the sides of the glass. This looks more like a glass of soda than a beer. A bit of skunk initially, but thankfully that quickly dissipates. Aroma of sweet malt and pungent grassy hops. The flavor is sweet malt follwed by the same grassy hops, although the hops are not a strong as in the aroma, which in this case is a good thing. Lingering bitterness at the finish. A bit of biscuit flavor emerges in the aftertaste. Not something I would look to revisit.
