Dutch cheapest CAT 1 pilsener. Watery, bit grainy, skunky hops. Pale golden coloured with a thin white head.

Light golden-yellow very clear beer with white, thin but average lasting head. Nice light malt aroma with very mild hop notes. Nice malty flavour with a slightly sweet, clean finish. Mild bitterness and light bodied. Bit plain but excellent for drinking a lot of.

Bottle. Grassy and corny. I keep forgetting that I’m not a huge fan of Lagers.

Light hazy amber / orange in colour, so-so off-white cap (could be creamier), some spotty lacing. The aroma is soft all around but still thick. Lots of sweet malts - more than I expected. Some pine, the usual candy citrus (softer than the norm). I think I Need another one for review as I cannot nail the aroma down well enough. The hops (leafy, hot, pine, spicy, some grapefruit) are not super overpowering but are still very harsh (I like!!!). Bready malts. A decent blend of flavours but seems muted somehow. Full bodied, smooth all the way through, some mild alcohol bite, fading piney bitter finish.

[723-20070930] 500mL. Metallic straw aroma has a hint of something floral. Clear, yellow brown body with a quick creamy white head. Sweet straw continues in flavour with metallic grainy yeast. Light-medium body. Not pleasant.

Not a bad pilsner, but just like any pilsner it’s borign and not very aromatic.
