sfontain (496), Columbus, Ohio, USA Apr 29, 2008 Yellow color; small, white head dissipates into a small, white ring but can be resurrected a bit with some swirling. Aroma citrus, grass, wheat. Flavor is strongly unbalanced with overwhelming bitterness, which, to me, completely invalidates the high rating of this beer; aside from the overdone hops, I do appreciate the rest of the flavors, which include bread and grass. Nice body; surprisingly full for such a light beer. Overall, this is a decent beer, but it’s also a great example of the ridiculous bias here toward overhopped beers; badly unbalanced, and the bitterness overwhelms the rest of the flavors.

Aroma is light lemon and honey hop aroma.
Very nice,
Flavour is grassy hop, grainy malt and some corn tones? Light lingering lemony bitterness.
JaPe (65), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Jun 29, 2008 First thing that hits you are hops. Then comes flavors of honey and pine.Nice strong even carbonation thats not overwelming. Very Nice. nuplastikk (365), Maryland, USA Jun 26, 2008 12oz bottle. I think this is my favorite American Pils. Transparent deep yellow color with an almost green tint to it. Deliciously crisp and surprisingly hoppy for a Pilsener. Creamy yeast still manages to shine through and compliment the initial bitterness. Excellent as a slow sipper or a session ale. Classic. timmy300 (142), bloomington, Illinois, USA Jun 26, 2008 crips, clean, hoppy, this was a perfect beer to enjoy with lunch on a hot summer day. zappafan99 (193), Rock Hill, South Carolina, USA Jun 25, 2008 Updated: Jul 4, 2008Very clear body with a thin white head. Mild floral aroma. Crisp and lean with lots of hops to finish. Good.
