D (577) - Gdynia, POLAND - OCT 5, 2005
Golden colour, medium head almost completely disappearing. Standard hops & malt taste, not very harsh. Decent lager, a little above Polish mass standard.

frankenkitty (1953) - Oak Lawn, Illinois, USA - SEP 22, 2005
Golden & flat with a white head that settled quickly into a scum. All I could smell was faint whiffs of rubbing alcohol and some lightly roasted grain... nothing adverse, though. Flavor was unimpressively malted to start with light herbal hops to finish. Metallic afterwards. If I didn’t have a clue what to expect, this would have been a very upsetting beer. As it stands, "je suis fatigue de la chancon."

gws57 (1231) - Saint Charles, Illinois, USA - AUG 25, 2005
Had this one bottled. Typically boring pilsener, and it’s not surprising that they’re owned by Heineken. Pale yellow color, slightly bubbly, not much head, not much flavor besides white rice and creamed corn.

MrRomero (1959) - Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA - AUG 21, 2005
500ml bottle: poured golden yellow with a small white fizzy head. Light aroma of apple and grape. Mild hops. European all the way. Not offensive by any means. Flavor is fruity, slightly watery finish. Decent.

piscator34 (1581) - Winnipeg, Manitoba, CANADA - AUG 9, 2005
Dark gold in colour with lots of carbonation. Fruity and slightly caramely aromas, with a minor note of herbal hops. Skunk, oxidized hops, and apple juice are the main flavor here. Light and watery body. Not good at all!

DavidP (1745) - Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA - JUL 18, 2005
Pale golden boyd. Musky lager hop aroma. Oxidized pale malt flavor with a light grassy hop character.

This is a real classic beer. Highly recommended for all beer drinkers. Great taste!

MIBRomeo (2105) - Wisconsin, USA - JUL 16, 2005
light yellow tall white head ok lacing. Tiny aroma of weak malt and grain. Carbonated and thin palate, bland grainy light carmel flavor.. pretty blah beer.
