He cannot always be wrong :-)): this IS a great beer 2000: Just for Oakes, I HAVE to retry this beer. I just cannot believe we are so far from each other on this one...

3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 DougShoemaker (3149) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - APR 26, 2002
Fruit and hop scent. Cloudy orange colour, big foamy head. Bold first taste seems stronger than 5.5%, very hoppy. Slightly acidic, complex. Very good, now that’s a Pilsener!
4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 NDmullet (208) - South Bend, Indiana, USA - APR 13, 2002
Pale colored, deceptively a la Budweiser, with a faint cloudiness. Frothy white head that forms cool peaks and valleys. Nice lemongrass/grain aroma. Smooth malt front, and a not-too-agressive hoppiness. Sublime balance makes for the best ’light’ beer I’ve had yet, and a steal at $1.49 per 11.2 oz bottle.
3.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 Dragonblaze99 (354) - Greater London, ENGLAND - MAR 1, 2002
Sweet hoppy aroma. Very sharp dry taste, with more mellow malty overtones. Long-lasting aftertaste which finishes off bitter. A very interesting beer.
3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 jbrus (4990) - Delft, NETHERLANDS - JAN 26, 2002
Fruity and perfume aroma. Yellow (not golden) colour. Cloudy, nice head. Sweet, bit soapy, full, some fruits. Dry finish, hop bitter. The hop taste lasts very long.

A slightly bitter aftertaste, but still enjoyable.
1.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 5/20 Ron (1695) - Rochester, New York, USA - DEC 9, 2001
The bottle I tried must have been on the import store shelf alittle too long.
