COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
"A genuine lager brewed to the 16th Century German Purity Law from Lager malt, German hops (tetnang & mittelfruh), yeast and water. This lager is cold fermented and cold conditioned for at least six weeks before serving. As none of our products are filtered and pasteurised, the lager can sometimes have a slight protein haze. This is caused when the natural cereal proteins are chilled below 10 degrees centigrade. This can be removed by force filtering the beer, but this also strips out flavour and goodness - we have therefore decided to offer the Lager as it was originally sold - unadulterated! The lager is dispensed under a low level of carbonation. 'A harvest aroma, soft malt texture, rich dry flavour and clean malt finish'."

Ungstrup (26476) - Citizen of the universe, DENMARK - AUG 30, 2007

yespr (26476) - Copenhagen O, DENMARK - NOV 27, 2008
From tap at the brewpub. Pours almost clear and pale yellow with a small white head. Light hoppy aroma. Somewhat apple citric flavoured with a mild cornish note and medium dry bitter hops finish. Quite simple and boring.

Pale golden. Medium body. Clean with rather firm maltiness and sparkling mouthfeel. Balanced finish with some bitterness.

Cask ... Light yellow colour ... odd lemon notes to nose ... sparkling lemon tartness and sweet lemon with little lageryness.

harrisoni (11025) - Ashford, Kent, ENGLAND - AUG 24, 2007
Draught at Clockwork, Glasgow. Pale gold, thin white head. Fairly dull aroma, some lemon, malts are thin. The lemon fruit is a little like washing up liquid. Not great.

Draught@brew pub. Pale yellow, not much head. Fruity, eaw mango-like nose. Quite sweet malty. Medium-bodied. Not much hops but has some character anyway. Bitter-fruity aftertaste.

Rune (6368) - Tromsø, NORWAY - APR 25, 2012
Half pint, which I didn’t empty, at the Clockwork brewpub. Near-clear amber-gold, headless. Smell of fruity butter. Strange taste of sour hops and butter-like malts. Oily palate. Far from persuading, to be polite (Glasgow, 12.04.2012).

Rastacouere (6058) - Montreal, Quebec, CANADA - OCT 1, 2007
Hazy pale golden lager topped by a light white head. Not particularly clean in the nose. First of all, I smell of old melon bubble gum, accompanied by floral and dubious fruit nuances. Just quite yeasty really. In mouth, a very husky feel detracts from the attempts to appreciate. Grainy lasting film over the gums. Too cerealic and fruity to be enjoyable.
