Draught@Bruxellensis. Clean, bitter and hoppy, but perhaps a touch to thin, to push it up there with the better ones. Still, i could quite happily drink a few of these. Nice grassy hops. Clean and bitter.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
(bottle, shared by DerDoppelbock) Hazy orange colour with a short and non-persisting foamy white head. Quite shy yeasty and malty aroma with notes of sweat and herbal hops. Bitter flavour, medium to light bodied with a well-carbonated mouthfeel. Distinctive yeasty and malty taste with horse blanket/ barnyard-character; dry, yeasty and bitter finish with aromatic herbal hops and light fruity accents. Well-crafted, full of (rural) character (06.10.06).
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottled - Bruxellensis - A slightly hazy yellow flat looking beer. The aroma is grassy and features also some lemony hops. The taste is nice fresh hops. Again lemon comes forward. Crisp, tasty and well brewed.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Draught Huge, explosive white fluffy head to fully hazy, slightly greenish-yellow beer. Shy, hoppy nose with lots of pale malts underneath. Very fresh malts taste; extremely young-tasting, yeast determined, but good. Some DMS-like flavours, but easily suppressed in the balance. Light, certain grist slickness. An ideosyncratic German Pilsener from the tap. Crazy, but good.

UPDATED: JUL 25, 2011 Too dark for a pilsener, absolutely no head at all. Apple aroma and flavor with a hint of mustard. Almost still beer. Hopbitterness in the flavor, lingering on in the aftertaste. This beer is called a pilsener, but it certainly isnt. It’s a kellerbier, and a drinkable one. 6 2 5 2 10 = 2.5
8 years later, in july 2011, I got a totally different one. Bottle, bought @ the brewery. Pale blonde. Hayaroma. Firm grassy hopbitter flavor. Notes of hay. Fairly dry. Characterful pilsener. The rating is for this one.
