Cereal nose, yello color, foamy head. Weak body and a chalky finish. Evaporates immediately in your mough. Thin, but a decent pils.

Bottle. It smells fruity, light sweet aroma of cookies. The white foamy head is medium large and has a normal duration. The body is pale yellow. The taste is rather bitter with a light fruity finish and quite metallic. The body is light and dry with a lively carbonation.

Bottle 330ml (so-called Bügelflasche). Pours a golden color, with a little bit of foam. In the beginning quite carbonated. Aroma is grassy, hay-ish hopsy. A little bitter, grass, yet rather smooth with a grassy aftertaste. Fresh taste. Surprisingly good for a Pils.

50cl bottle relabelled as Sülfmeister Pilsener for the Sandpassage supermarket in Lüneburg. Gold with a white medium-foamy head and aroma of grassy herby hops, nice crisp bitter bite, crisp and light bodied with a little bready and peachy malt, and a light bitter aftertaste.

500ml bottle (OPP, Helsinki. German Weeks 2009)
Simple aroma - a touch of grassy hops. Crisp caronation. Simple malty body, some sweet aspects, but fairly tasty. Simple punchy grainy beer. Finish has some popcorn and gentle hoppy bitterness. Nothing special. Pat says "corny poop", but that’s Pat for you.

Bottled@One Pint Pub, Helsinki. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is grassy, saltwatery, bready and hayish. Flavour is being quite much the same in a rather nice balance. Thanks to Markku for sharing this one.

It’s a light golden pilsner with a white head and the aroma has notes of malt and straw. The slightly sweet flavor has notes of malt, straw and a slightly bitter and dry citrus in the finish. It’s harmonic and refreshing.

Fliptop bottle 0,33 ltr (BB 11/2009). Golden color, steady medium-sized white head. Aroma is sweet malty with grainy notes, some green grass and buttery notes too. Flavor is also sweet malty, maybe hints of butterness, but also a bit hoppy (cut grass/hay). Late cut grass hoppy bitterness in the aftertaste. Steady pils.

Yellow colored with little yellow head. Buttery aroma with sweet fruits, not too special aroma. Medium bodied. Flavor is similar with butter dominating, fruits and lemon also present. Aftertaste dries with lemon still. Well, easy to drink, smooth palated brew.

Draught. Buttery/dusty aroma. Almost clear golden colour, OK stable creamy white head. OK dusty flavour. Low to medium bitterness. Creamy mouthfeel.
