| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Jan 26, 2005 I’m a bit biased, as I have fond memories of drinking bottles of this brought in from Austria by one of the guys in the German House in college. One of my earlier exposures to non-BMC beer. Really not a bad place to start for that matter. Clear golden, nice head, good lacing. Pleasant grassy aroma, with a touch of grain. Wonderfully clean flavor of pilsner malt, and floral, grassy hop finish. Touch herbal as well. Really pleasant. An almost pure expression of beer. TerryR (383), Oswego, Illinois, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 25, 2005 Pale straw color with a thick white head. Nice lacing. Spicy hop aroma. Fairly light body followed by a nice crisp finish. Pils are on the lighter end of the beers that I enjoy, but this is an exellent example of the style. Aubrey (2777), Denver, Colorado, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 16, 2005 Just came across my notes from last summer (RBSG04): Very clear and light golden with a lofty, bleached-white head. Smooth and soft with moderate carbonation. Light malts (grainy); dry and light; very little sweetness. Hops were flowery, spicy and herbal. A little snappy bitterness shows up in the aftertaste. Not a bad pils. RAYBOY01 (1851), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Jan 16, 2005 Not sure what’s wrong with the rest of you, but this one’s not bad. Great carbonation, big rocky head, strong hoppy bite, (very refreshing), with a crisp finish. And it came in a 17oz bottle so I didn’t have to keep flagging down the waiter! Come to my rescue here, CORNFIELD! MillStreetMan (152), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 1.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 2/10 | 1/5 | 3/20 | Jan 13, 2005 UGH! It is a rare beer that I actually pour down the drain rather than drink, but this was one of them. It was insipid, uninspiring and plain watery, with virtually zero taste, with the little taste not being dissimilar to sucking on dead grass. Horrible. pintbypint (1010), Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 9, 2005 500ml can. poured bright gold with a ncie finely beaded head that broke down quickly. Malty, a bit sweet with some herbal hops. Grainy, malty aftertaste. wnp22 (682), Toronto (Roncesvalles Village), Ontario, Canada
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Jan 2, 2005 Tasted in Toronto. Obtained from LCBO. Tasted in dimpled mug. Appearance is light yellow, substantial sustained head - clear. Buttery, soft hop aroma, with hints of malt but very subtle. Flavour matches well with the aroma - light buttery creamy taste, slight bitterness of hops with a finishing grainy / malt flavour. imdownthepub (5164), Banbury, Oxfordshire, England
