Nov 23, 2009 Bottle. Pours a slightly hazy light orange with a two finger, rocky, white head that has pretty good retention. No lacing. Aroma is potpourri, curacao, cinnamon, some intense booziness like cinnamon schnapps. Taste starting out is like a bad tripel, lots of mustiness and alcohol. Then moves to some metallic Saaz hops ending finally with some intense wheat, hay, and graininess. Meh.

Nov 22, 2009 Dark gold with a lot of carbonation continually floating upward. Light head , but good lace
Earthy and malty. No real hop aroma.
The flavor matches the nose. This is far more malty than most pilsner. Very rich pilsner that the carbonation balances off nicely.

Nov 20, 2009 12 oz bottle: Aroma is a nice grassy hop texture, a bit of alcohol, sweet, a light bready malt, light notes of spice as well, Appearence is a semi-translucent gold with just the slightest hint of amber and a white head that diminishes into a soapy white film. Taste has got a really nice hop texture grassy again, alcohol, and a candy flavor. Palate is medium bodied, rather clingy on the tongue, and a aftertaste of the grassy hops, Overall, Good but not great. I would buy this again. Cheers!

Nov 8, 2009 Received a single 12-oz bottle via trade with kmweaver. Pours a semi-hazy golden pale brew with a thin off-white head that quickly dissipates to a thin white ring. Aroma of golden grain malt, some light pear, grassy hops, and a hint of citrus. Taste is light to medium bodied, flavors of golden multi-grain with some wheat, light fruit, citrus and yeast. Finish is semi-sweet with a light bitter and metallic texture aftertaste.

Nov 5, 2009 12oz - I was a little underwhelmed. No real nose, funk and sweetness if anything. Flavor was not really there, set me off if anything with the woody bock notes. I guess I expected something else.

Oct 8, 2009 12oz bottle. Included in a sampler box. Pours a light golden color. Pretty good for the style. Lagers are not my usual drink of choice but this one was pretty drinkable. Slightly sweet with some hops coming through.
