2.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Pours clear pale yellow with foamy white head. Aroma is sweet malts and saazy hops with lots of grass and hay. Flavor slightly sweet, grassy and a bitter dry saaz hop finish. Overall, just so so.
2.2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Taking a guess that this was the beer. All I wrote down was Holland Beer. Sixer of 12 oz green bottles from local Kroger.Pretty good skunk at first pour that dissipated. Pale and honey malt aroma with light noble hop character. Clear light straw with small white head. Light pale/pilsner malt flavor with some honey and graininess, noble hop character with a touch of a solvent alcohol note. Light body with dry finish.
2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 7/20
12 oz. bottle. Pours a golden color with a light white head. Standard malt flavor. A little airy and grassy. Light bodied and crisp. Not overly carbonated with an easy finish.
2.6 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
50cl can, pale golden colour, white head, light sweet malt aroma, very light bitter finish, nothing special but well balanced lager

This is not absolutely terrible, better than most of your imported macros at the same or more expensive price point. It’s clean and crisp, but ordinary, and lacking in the sunkiness department which add to its refreshing qualities.

Kinda bland and watery even for Euro-lager. Why drink this except that it’s cheaper than Heineken or St. Pauli girl? I will say this for it though, it’s so easy to slam down that it would be ideal for drunken rioting at soccer matches.

UPDATED: SEP 1, 2008 A nice, crisp, clean tasting pilsner from the netherlands. Better than Heineken, but it’s no Grolsch. Give it a try.

Believe this is the beer I purchased. Label says Bavaria Holland Beer and from the Commercial Description it sound like what I have in my hand. Anyways....
Poured a very clear light yellow with little head. Not much aroma to it and has a typical lager taste. This is comparable to Heineken. It was in a green bottle so I naturally picked the six-pack from the back of the shelf to hopefully avoid the skunky and was successful. Not a bad brew but nothing really to rave about either.
