Starts being refreshing, but later the taste is a little annoying like the BItburger.

KnutAlbert (4386) - Oslo, NORWAY - JAN 12, 2011
From a hotel minibar (in the dead of winter). Thin and watery, but not in any way awful, not likely to impress, not likely to offend. Some hops, some mlat, but in low quantities.

auderale (591) - Bitburg, GERMANY - JAN 2, 2006
Bottle. Reminds me of a cross between an american light beer and a Corona. It’s actually pretty good. I’ve bought it a few times. Also good with a little lime too..

Koelschtrinker (6545) - Köln (Cologne), North Rhine-Westphalia, GERMANY - JUN 21, 2011
Überraschend herb ist das Bit Sun - so gar nicht, wie man es von anderen Goldbieren kennt. Natürlich ist das normale Bitburger herber, dennoch wie gesagt - für ein Goldbier überraschend. Der Abgang ist dagegen gewohnt wässrig und kaum zu erschmecken. Als Goldbier kann das Bit Sun voll und ganz überzeugen. Test vom 21.7.2006, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 5,10,10,5,8,10 - 8,65

raymondwave (931) - FINLAND - JUL 15, 2007
Quite similar to other german golds. Has very nice sweetish maltiness and even some hops. Still lacks the nice hoppy afterburn and crispiness of the real Bit. Quite enjoyable anyway.

Papsoe (21782) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - JAN 16, 2006
(Bottle 33 cl) Yet another in the latest German trend of lagers in clear bottles. Fully golden with almost no head. Lovely floral nose from the aroma hops. sweetish malty with almost no bitterness. High drinkability. 160106

cheeta (1165) - Langå, DENMARK - NOV 17, 2007
Moderate hoppy aroma. Large frothy, white head. Good lacing. Mostly diminishing longevity. Clear sparkling, yellow body. Moderate bitter flavor. Light to medium palate.

Hansen (4228) - Assentoft, DENMARK - APR 7, 2007
Light yellow and clear. Hs a white head, mostly lasting. Aroma is hoppy, first a bit odd, then better. Flavor is sweet and crisp.
