Not really what I expected. SInce its served in a fancy glass, I was thinking I would get a fancy beer. But not really. It’s good. The aroma and flavor are better than other mass produced lagers, but there’s nothing here that makes me jump for joy. The beer taste itself has a slightly bitter kick to it, but goes down smoothly. I think that maybe since the alcohol content is a little higher than normal, that after a few of these everything feels better. Try it. Why not?

Nov 28, 2008 Clear very light yellow pour with a finger of white head. Big skunky pils aroma, pale malts, and a light hop grassiness. Taste is malty, light pale malt, smooth with some grassy hop for balance.

Nov 27, 2008 Sorry Stella. 12 ounce bottle from Glenville beverage. Golden color was beautiful and I was pumped about trying this one. White head, looked clean and refreshing. Then I smelled it. Maybe it was a skunky bottle, maybe too much light got in. Or maybe not. Maybe it was just a bad beer. Tasted skunky. I barely could finish this one.

Nov 27, 2008 Crisp gold but I’ve come to prefer a little darker hue in even my lagers and pilsners. Taste is not reminiscent of Heineken at all and has this sourness. The sourness makes it inconsistent for me.

Nov 21, 2008 On tap at a hotel restaurant. Poured into a pilsner glass, bright golden yellow with a small head that left no lacing. Nice champagne bubbles rising to the top, though. Pungent aroma, skunky like a heineken. Flavor was less offensive - somewhere between cardboard and grains. Watery mouthfeel, nice carbonation (best part of the beer), and dry aftertaste. A place that serves this probably also serves more appealing alternatives - go for the alternative.
