Bottled. Clear golden colour, medium frothy head. Grassy hop aroma. Grassy, herbal, fresh taste with a light sweetness and hints of malt. Medumbodied. A decent one, for sure.

Pours medium yellow with thin white head that quickly dissipates. Nose is faint grassy notes. Flavor is mildly sweet and sour, mild hops towards the end, fairly crisp with just a hint of skunkiness towards the end. Overall Ok.

Gold in color, with decent hopcitric nose, along with traces of honey and grains of paradise. Tastes crisp, dry, with hopcit and some honeyish melonic fruit. Decent balance.

Aroma, and to a lesser extent flavor, were rather skunked. Yet deep down there are traces of a nice well-balanced beer, especially after a few sips. Body & color seem a lot like one would expect from a German pilsener. Will try again and rerate if I find another source.

Slightly hazy golden body. Nicely thick, medium-full head. Smell is wet hay, wet dog, and grass. Taste is bitter German hops, canned corn, coriander seed. Drying finish, odd mustiness throughout.

Golden colour with long lasting lacing.Low carbonisation made for a pleasant but uncomplicated drink.A good example of this style.

Draft at San Diego Brewing Co. Pale yellow with a small white head that did not last very long at all. Left no lacing to speak of. Aromas were pretty weak. Maybe some yeasty vanilla. Flavor was better though. Nice malt/hops balance. Very crisp and refreshing. Just a little too boring.

(Bottle 50 cl) Pale golden with a beautiful, full head. Pretty soft and pleasant mouthfeel with a rather subdued bitterness for a German pils. 180499
