blutt59 (1073), Dallas, Texas, USA Dec 19, 2008 bottle, yellow in color with foamy head, aroma is very sour and grainy, flavor is sweet and slightly bitter , very depressing MexiFinn (21), Las Vegas, Nevada, USA Nov 28, 2008 Pours golden with an ok head, nose is average with hops and yeast, taste is a bit grainy and hoppy, very drinkable, but not the best pilsner that I’ve had... the bottle was green and the label was different than pictured here... should of got the half rack of Urquell for a buck less. Cheers! fata2683 (270), APO, New York, USA Nov 20, 2008 bottle, pours light gold with a thin white head. Nose is thin with corn and light malt mixed with skunk. Mouth is thin and watery with light bitterness. Not good at all. CelticBrew (557), The Crystal Coast, North Carolina, USA Oct 27, 2008 Updated: Oct 28, 2008Poured a light yellow straw color from 12 oz bottle, little to no foam head. aroma of corn grain and a bit of hops and malts. Flavour much of the same, remarkably, it reminded me of drinking LowenBrau as a kid in Honolulu. Drinkable, however, not exactly what I would consider a top notch pils. And yeah, I know, lowies is a lager/helles type beer. 502Flavors (410), Louisville, Kentucky, USA Oct 22, 2008 12 oz into shaker. Green bottle with a different label that the pic on here (for all I know this thing could have been sitting at the liquor store for years!). Piss poor yellow clear no carbonation bubbles. Good white head that laces... but the color of the body is soo weak and off-putting that this is a 1 for appearance. Aroma is very one-dimensional, all corn - just a notch above Budweiser. Flavor is bitingly bitter, but not in a good way - grossly bitter hops, like rotten old hops with no flavor. I gave them a point for adding hops. It is actually tasting like mouthwash and draino poured into a pale lager now. Light anus on the palate. Overall: umm? Number 1 stunna?
