ekstedt (3625) - Göteborg, SWEDEN - SEP 14, 2008
Draught at EBF 2008. Hazy pale golden, medium white head. Fruity, yeasty, and spicy with clear notes of butterscotch. Dry with a long bitter finish. A very good pilsner.

Chrism86 (294) - Melbourne, AUSTRALIA - SEP 10, 2008
UPDATED: SEP 12, 2008 Pours a pale, hazy lemon hinting golden body with a medium white head. Nose shows some sweet malt and overripe fruit. Palate shows alot of tropical fruit (kiwi hops?) and sweet malt. Finishes with spicy resin hops but still very crisp and clean. Not your traditional pils, but great nonetheless!

KiwiJonno (70) - Christchurch, NEW ZEALAND - JUN 28, 2008
UPDATED: OCT 29, 2008 500mL Bottle. Nice pleasant slightly grassy hop aroma. Slightly cloudy pale yellow/golden coloured beer. Poors a good size head that actually lasts for awhile. Complex beer, med-bitterness for a Pilsner. Lingering fruity taste. One of my favourite Pilsners.

skortila (4035) - Baarn, NETHERLANDS - JUN 16, 2008
Bottled. Thx Noize. Aroma is cheesy like a saison, has hops, malts. Hazy, yellow coloured with a lasting, white head. Taste is bit sweet, bitter. It had citrus,some malts, hops. Very full of taste and very full bodied for a pilsener. Good stuff. Wish they had this kind of pilseners in the Netherlands.

caesar (3724) - Bunnik/Utrecht, NETHERLANDS - JUN 11, 2008
Bottled, thx to Noize. Hazy yellow color, short head. Aroma of cheese, malt, barnyard, some hop. Bitter taste, malty, grainy. Nothing compared to a German pilsener, but much more like a saison.
