Bloemart (257) - NETHERLANDS - APR 19, 2005
Very nice, was my first impression, and this stayed with me, a very exciting and unexpected flavor followed by an even more unexpected palate, good one.

highlandlad (1329) - Blue Mountains, AUSTRALIA - FEB 1, 2005
Moderate organic lager from an Irish "craft brwer". Poured a cloudy yellow colour with a fleeting 1cm head. Fresh hay in the nose and some zesty hop characters. Spoiled by some faint uric notes. Medium-bodied - firmer than you might expect for a lager. Undermined by some sour notes but it’s possible the sample was past its best (two weeks after Best Before). Quenching but unremarkable.

This is an excellent lager in my point of view. Very tastful compared to other similar beers - and organic! Is for sale at Superquinn’s

SilkTork (4737) - Rochester, Kent, United Kingdom, WALES - OCT 3, 2003
Bottle. Sweet and malty with a metallic hop finish. Main body is fine - if a little sticky - but the finish is poor.

Bronstein (175) - Göttingen, GERMANY - JAN 29, 2003
Dark golden color, rapidly diminishing head. Fruit and honey aroma. Fullmouth fruity and sweet malty flavours. in company with some aroma hops. Little dry finish. Sweet and fruity aftertaste. Fresh, soft and creamy impression. Very nice lager.
