Bottle from BevMo. Light golden in color. Graiy nose with a little grassiness and malt. Flavor is crisp and grainy. A little hint of maltiness in the finish. Rather clean tasting. Pretty refreshing.

12oz bottle. Pale golden yellow color, lots of active C02 bubbles rising to meet the foamy off-white head. Classic noble hop and sweet malt aroma. Rather light bodied, a little doughy with a slightly rough dirty edge to it. Not very impressive, potentially much better fresh of course, this bottles age is suspect. Dry and sweet finish. Pretty shabby overall.

Grassy, malty aroma comes right up from the bottle. Not pleasant. The appearance is like piss, light yellow, white head. The flavor is a little better, more bread, grass, sweet adjuncts. The finish is a light hop bittering, barely enough to indicate that the beer has pass through, leaving a lingering bitterness. Medium mouthfeel. Not enjoyable. It IS a tick in a relatively rare style.

Can, 1999-06-05 a bit watery international lager. I remember when the cans were 5 liters in the old days.

This beer is really surprising as it can easily substitute a Heineken or a Carlsberg when you watch the Football/Soccer game. It’s a nice pilsener with a golden colour but a rare smell (depends if you drink the can or on tap, I drank the can). Its flavour is what pleased me the most. It tastes much better than a Beck’s or a Veltins (the German Budweisers). Drink it with a plate of Nachos while watching Chelsea FC smother Man.Utd.

Voglio dire non ero obbligato a provarla,ma la curiosità ha avuto il sopravvento,ero in coda per il mio irrinunciabile pezzo di focaccia con la cipolla quotidiano e mi sono trovato a comprare questa birra...giallo chiaro,leggero aroma di malto,in bocca è secca e maltata con un certo amarognolo di fondo...ordinaria ma potabile.

I enjoyed this German Pilsner in my favorite DAB Glass. Golden color, modeest head that held a little. Nice Hops for a clean finish.

Bottle - 660ml - Clear gold, Thin white head. Sweet, malty, with a grassy hop. Thin to medium body. Medium carbonation. Clean and crisp. Slight bitter finish. Drinkable but rather mediocre.
