| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Dec 18, 2008 Bottle. Pours golden with a little bit of white lace. Nose of grains, wet towels, light hops. Flavor is slightly bitter hops, some subtle sweet malts with a lagerish finish. On point for the style and fairly drinkable. tgncc (845), Bellmore, New York, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Dec 7, 2008 My first Helles as per Ratebeer To be honest most of these styles - Helles Dortmunder Pilsners - seem like minor variations from the pale lager The appearance is straw gold decent white head, again like the pale lager The aroma is different - much more malty slightly fruity The flavor is again mostly malty grainy Small but noticeable hop signature on the end Enduring bitter finish Not bad at all DrDavid (957), Johnson, Vermont, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Oct 15, 2008 (Bottle). Sweet malty caramel aroma. Amber body, off-white head. Malt and caramel flavor, a bit of butterscotch. Interesting, though not overly appealing. Sammy (4064), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Sep 23, 2008 Enjoyed on-tap as a guest tap at The Mad Brewer. Good carbonation, hops. Light yellow colour with lace. Decent enough lager for the summer. Neutral aroma, average mouthfeel. A bit drying in the finish, it’s still a nice one for Summer.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 20, 2008 Stoudt’s Gold Lager is widely recognized as one of the finest German-style beers brewed in America. I don’t think so. Only 150 of Michael Jackson’s 500 Classic Beers to go. nearbeer (1880), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 12, 2008 12 oz, bb 06-23-08. Effervescent, clear and shiny orange-gold with a lasting one-finger head. Sheets of fine lacing. Fresh herb-hop and citrus on top of honey and grain aromas. Smooth, balanced blend of flavors includes grain, honey, green herbs, a touch of lemongrass, and hints of caramel apple. Medium body is soft with a crisp dry finish, but a little too fizzy at times. cellardweller1 (19), upstate ny, New York, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 10, 2008 Bottle. Poured a pale yellow/orange with a tiny head that is easily crushable. Fruity aroma with a wink of hops which does not really present itself in the flavor delivery. Finishes gradually and cleanly. Good michael-pollack (2745), King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, USA
