Goodgrief (1144), Middletown, Delaware, USA Mar 10, 2008 July 2007 - Pour was pale yellow, crystal clear with a finger sized head which dissipated quickly, no lacing. Aroma was grassy and hoppy, which gave me high hopes. Sweet pilsner malts, grass and a hop bite, but a flavor underneath that reminded me of the way sweet things taste after brushing your teeth. Hard to finish. Jayb0 (750), Cherry Hill, New Jersey, USA Mar 10, 2008 An OK pilsener that doesn’t seem to go in any particular direction. Fairly hoppy, somewhat vegetal, lacks crispness. The head is decent but doesn’t quite hold as much as I’d like to see. Just ok. weaselkenievil (738), Cheshire, England Mar 5, 2008 Alittle watery for a pilsener, there are much better. There are of course much worse. Slightly bitter aftertaste. It was cheap in my local offy and I’m skint, and tasted likt really. Average. jkwalking05 (1483), Arlington, Texas, USA Mar 1, 2008 Bottle - Pours light golden with a moderate white head. Aroma is a little skunky with slight hop aroma. Taste is a little hoppy but tastes watered down. Wulfstan (509), California, USA Feb 29, 2008 This is a nice German-style pilsner (which is by definition good in my book) but not as good as others. Ut s gold with a decent white head that dense but steadily shrinks to a thin lasting top and leaves no real lace. The aroma is a strong lager smell with strong grain quality, a little mustiness, pine, herbs and hint of sulphur - nice. The taste is grain and a grassy-herbal-flowery sulphur hop quality making it light but tasty, with a nice grain-0bitter hop finish. It’s very tasty. mmmbeer (737), Austin, Texas, USA Feb 28, 2008 Bottle poured into flute- poured transparent light golden yellow, very thin white head formed but bubbled away from high-medium carbonation after a minute, aroma of very faint hops and grain. Hits the mouth with a thin body, wheat and hops are very underpowering even for the style, finish is a little bitter but refreshingly dry. Bit of a letdown for me. fredandboboflo (1395), East Setauket, New York, USA Feb 23, 2008 Bottle. Aroma contains notes of wheat, faint notes of banana, and grassy/floral hops. Flavor is very wheaty with the faint banana roaming as well. Hops aren’t terribly notable in the flavor except to announce their presence, in mild manner of course, but a presence which, combined with the notes of banana and wheat, and the overall drinkability of the beer, makes me wonder why, why, why can’t American macros taste like this? why? LilBeerDoctor (1480), East Setauket, New York, USA Feb 22, 2008 Bottle. Poured light yellow with a thick white head, lots of carbonation. No real odor, just smelled like a Bud or Heineken. Taste was alright though, some zesty lemony/spicy hops while cold. As it warmed, I got a slight light fruity taste (pear, banana). Also some wheat. I was impressed by this beer for being more complex than I had anticipated. A good beer to chill with.
