Draft at Princeton location. Clear golden in color, with a smallish white head. The aroma is slightly sweet and fruity, yet crisp. It has a medium body, a smooth malty sweetness with a bit of honey and fruit notes with a crisp, grassy hop finish.

at Princeton Dortmunder Export–growler-pours a white head that laces and yellow/gold color. Aroma is mild bread/light malt, grassy. Taste is bread/light malt, grassy/spice[?] hops. Leans to a creamy mouth feel and medium body instead of effervescent and light body.

Pours a clear gold color with a thin white head. Pleasant aroma of malt, some honeyish sweetness and hops. Good balanced flavor of hops, malt and some honeyish sweetness. The body is light while the carbonation is gentle. Interesting.

In short: Nice blonde session lager. Well brewed, nothing stands out.
How: Post-Mondial 2008 tasting session. Hand-bottles brought to Montreal by Dickinsonbeer. Paul rules!
The look: Clear blonde body topped by a small white head
In long: Unmistakable larger sensation, some fruity notes of citrus and pineapples, some dry grassy hops in the finish. This is a nice little session lager, well made, well balanced but not very memorable. Highly drinkable even if nothing special. I cannot really tell you how true to the Dortmunder it is as I’m really not familiar enough with the style. I am actually so unfamiliar with the style that until recently I thought a Dortmunder was a Star Wars villain.

[1458-20080531] Bottle. Wheat germ bread yeast aroma has a bit of flower. Clear, light orange yellow body with quick white bubbles. Bit of yeasty bread flavour has some wheat. Light body. Nice yeast, fair.

Thanks to hophead75. Pours a pale hazy gold. Has a white head. Sweet grassy nose with some bready malt. Bitter. Hay in the flavor, earthy, malty, nice balance. Very sessoinable.

Objectively speaking: Clean and tasty blonde lager from a hand-bottle generously brought by Paul.
I like: Well-extracted pils malt flavours. Gently bready, soft, almost doughy and fresh, albeit not bursting with freshness. Active and engaging carbonaton does not manage to enliven the mouthfeel to crispiness level, it remains rather round, even for the style. Soft herbal hop aromas seem to evoke a certain mineral aspect that works well despite the beer being a lager.
I dislike: While the beer is never too sweet, it does not evolve much towards dryness as the finish approaches. As a result, it seems a bit sweet in the finish, as if it forgot to evolve. Not as refreshing as the top examples with regards to that.

2008-05-31. Crisp yellow body with a small white head. Sweet, floral hops in the aroma, touch of buttercup. (6+) Mild grains, more buttercup like floral hops in the flavour, very light bitterness. Average to light palate. Meh, decent example of a style I’m not particularly fond of. Hand bottled shared by Dickinsonbeer, Post-Mondial Tasting, Montreal
