Ungstrup (23951) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - JUN 29, 2004
An orange beer with a small white disappearing head. The aroma is sweet with notes of caramel and grain. The flavor is sweet with notes of caramel and an OK bitter end. It leaves a sticky feeling in the mouth.

Hildigöltur (5107) - København, DENMARK - JUN 29, 2004
Dark golden coloured. Slightly hoppy and rather soft pilsener. Very drinkable.

MartinKubert (862) - Copenhagen, DENMARK - JUN 29, 2004
A nice pilsener. A bit sweet, perhaps. Though, some bitterness in finish. Nice yellow colour. Low head.

jerohen (1793) - Bussum, NETHERLANDS - MAR 20, 2004
As mentioned a few times before, this is quite a soft pilsener. A bit more hoppy than your average pilsener, but without the strong bitterness of the other Brand brews. Refreshing.

skortila (4160) - Baarn, NETHERLANDS - MAR 17, 2004
Hoppy smell. Clear, golden coloured, clean white head. very smooth taste for a Brand brew. Quite okay. Not really interesting though. Hoppy, watery a bit sweet and some bitterness. Quite fresh. Summer-pilsener.

caesar (3748) - Bunnik/Utrecht, NETHERLANDS - MAR 16, 2004
Nice soft pilsener, nothing more, nothing less. The Brand Pilsener is a more bitter pilsener, the Urtyp is almost a bohemian pilsener, and this cuvee is just a soft watery pilsener.

dirkbreedveld (286) - NETHERLANDS - MAR 1, 2004
a little deeper coppercolor than there lager. It's a little bit sweet due to the fermatationprocess(hoge gisting)Nothing special at all. Maybe brewed fot commercial purpose to attract woman. But it's the worst beer of this brewer. I personaly think a marketing blunder of Heineken.

jbrus (4990) - Delft, NETHERLANDS - FEB 28, 2004
Old hop aroma. Dark golden color, white head, good lace. Malty, light sweet, hoppy, light bitter, thick. So Brand stopped bottling Sylvester, Dubbelbock and Imperator and this is what we got back! My god!

bierkoning (8099) - La Tropica, NETHERLANDS - FEB 17, 2004
Apple and hoparoma. Delicate hopflavor with apple. Medium bodied. Just a bit of glue and aluminium. Delicate indeed, but disappointing.
