| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 8, 2006 Starts off well, nice clear deep straw color with a 1 finger head. Noble hops prevalent in the nose, but not overwhelming allowing the grain aromas to come through.
Slight sweetness from the grain, not to much, just right. Hop flavors and bitterness hanging around but not overpowering allowing the grain to shine. Finishes cleaner than expected, figuring the sweetness would last. Excellent pilsener! willblake (2187), Belcamp, Maryland, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 14, 2006 01.13.06 Tap at Princeton location. Rich and bright golden color under ample, lasting, and stickily lacing white head. Lush and coating palate full of cracker and grass. Full of crackin hops. Smart and cleansing drink with the grilled ham and cheese they’re trying to pass off as a cubano sandwich. Loses it’s body quickly as it approaches room temp.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 22, 2007 Light golden color with a medium fizzy head. Aroma is nice and malty with some grass, sweet pils malt, and a nice hop bitterness. Taste has a nicely hopped flavor to go with a crisp & smooth finish. Well done.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Oct 19, 2007 On tap at Triumph New Hope. Pours a translucent golden with an average bubbly/creamy white head. Aroma of noble hops, citrus, floral, cereal grains and pretzels. Flavor of pretzels, grains, noble hops, nice hop bitterness and some grassiness. Dickinsonbeer (3497), Hoboken, New Jersey, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Mar 16, 2006 Tap @ Princeton. Pours a nice pale gold with lively carbonation and a tight white head. Aroma had slight hints of both dms and diacetyl, but those took a backseat to the bready pils malts and light noble hop aroma- slightly fruity as well. Flavor was light with more pils malt, fresh baked bread, and crisp with a nice bitter hoppy finish. Pretty smooth overall. Nice and easy to drink. whaleman (2171), North Wales, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Oct 17, 2006 New Hope location. Clear, deep straw body with a collapsing sudsy white head. Rich continental pils malt aroma with melon and citrus tones plus some light hay. Good pils malt flavor with lemony highlights and a lightly numbing, antiseptic finish. Clean, well-lagered character overall. Nice, smooth, quenching mouthfeel. A solid brewpub pilsner.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 3, 2009 GABF 2007. Smells strongly of lemon grass and noble hops, which I associate more with the Czech than the German version of the style (which I like better anyway). Flavor is lightly citric and texture is crisp enough (although not as sharp as the best). Hops in the finish are delayed and become apparent only after a corny sugar right after the swallow (which really detracts). Not bad though. Zeswaft (1000), Seattle, Washington, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 27, 2007 something about a crisp pilsener on a hot summer day. decent bitterness countered by decent maltiness. i find a well crafted pils like this just as enjoyable as a good ipa.
