BritAlesRule (84), Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA Apr 25, 2008 Hate being a buzz-killer, this is not a bad beer at all, I’m just not into APA’s, even disguised as bottom fermented Pilsners. Golden with tiny bubbles ascending, and an extremely clean grassy aroma. Prickly crystaline hops on a medium-bitter mouthfeel lets you know it’s an American. Sharp and green at first with a smooth tail at the end. Decent. The Storm King and the ’Monkey still rule their roost in my book. rman18 (200), South Amboy, New Jersey, USA Apr 22, 2008 THIS is the ultimate summer thirst quencher. I call it my gatorade with a buzz. Pour light golden yellow with a small white head. Beautiful aroma of fruity, well picked hops. Taste of hops isn’t as strong as the aroma which makes this an easy to drink beer. Another good beer by Victory! mcc5468 (102), USA Apr 22, 2008 12 oz bottle. Poured slightly hazy. Aroma of hops. Dry and slightly crisp. I just returned from Germany so maybe I was a little spoiled but I expected more from this beer. It was good but not as great as I had heard. maybrick350 (4), West Chester, Pennsylvania, USA does not count Apr 22, 2008 I’ve been drinking this pils for years. I agree with the NY Times panel abbout being the best pils in the world. It’s always consistent, great dry finish. Subtle malt notes and just a great crowd pleaser. MaltOMeal (642), Land of Sugar, Texas, USA Apr 21, 2008 12 oz bottle. Pours a clear, light-yellow amber with a white head. Magc Dave doesn’t know shit about beer. Of course we already knew that. This is a very fine example of the pilsner style. This has a pilsner hops are prevalent with grass and some scent of lemon. Taste is grassy hops and lemon. Mouthfeel is very crisp, clean and refreshing with some carbonation and a slight bitter finish. Very good beer for a summer day, especially after working in the yard. cgarvieuk (4159), Edinburgh, Scotland Apr 18, 2008 Bottle Cheers Dave i think ... Crisp clear yellow ... lager hop nose .. overfizzy ... lagery and not even very good lager. Magicdave6 (5383), London, Greater London, England Apr 18, 2008 Updated: Apr 9, 2009Bottle from jj57jdnbf86789dbnd7hj3 or whatever his name is. My god what a disapointment, any half ass german pils will rip the tits out this overrated fellow. Aroma is cornish,m grainy pale malts, grassy hints of lemon. Taste is similar, easy goling yes, but dry grassy pritty bland, incredibly average. RERATE: Upto 4.3 from 2.5. Bottle in the rake. Alround rating: Gorgeous hoppy fresh, awsome mix of great lager malts and leafy hopness. Alround one of those one’s i wanted to rerate as i knew the bottle i had was old and poor and i was right. verymerrymonk (255), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA Apr 16, 2008 Pours a clear yellow body with a thin white head. Sweet-ish up front with a finish of grassy hops. Good lawnmower beer.
