stoutlover72 (1320), NorCal, California, USA May 30, 2008 This beer had something in it that I’ve yet to smell before in a beer. Vick’s Vapour rub. And yet, it wasn’t a total turn-off. The aroma was mostly corn and Vick’s (perhaps the hops?) though. It had a solid golden color to it, clear with a nice fluffy head. Flavors of bready yeast went well with the hops and malt to make a nice, refreshing pils.
estoppel (1014), Buffalo, New York, USA Aug 10, 2008 Bottle. Nice golden body, dense white head receding, Saaz (or should I say Zatec Red) nose. Honeyed malts, Saaz, light DMS. Lightly carbonated for the style. wheresthepath (213), Buckinghamshire, England Aug 6, 2008 [330ml bottle at Malmaison, Reading] Attractive deep gold/ amber with a large, lasting foamy white head. Smells sweet, honeyed, some grass. Tastes disappointing in comparison; some malt and a tiny hint of grass, but mainly a bland watery bitterness. Instantly forgettable. renffisch (406), london, Greater London, England Jul 31, 2008 33cl bottle from southcott. golden colour, thin creamy head. floral hoppy nose. sweet malty flavour with a sturdy floral hop note.fruity and beautifully balanced lovely bohemian. AndrewKScott (319), Lemont, Illinois, USA Jul 30, 2008 Kind of a light orange pour. a bit of a fruity, grassy aroma. Sweet, grassy taste with a chemical aftertaste. I’m not a fan. Very difficult to finish. Gregis (884), Overland Park, Kansas, USA Jul 27, 2008 Bottle purchased at Beertopia in Omaha, NE. Pours a clear gold with two fingers of fluffy white head that diminishes to a thin cap. The nose is of grainy, biscuity malt with a lightly grassy supporting note. Light-bodied with a finely grainy mouthfeel concluding crisp and lightly dry. Sweet, light pilsner malt with a mildly grassy hop note at the finish. This is a fairly solid brew. It’s not flashy, but it’s not too shabby.
