Spiesy (2338) - Sydney, Greater London, AUSTRALIA - MAY 2, 2003
Draught. Pale gold colour, with light lacy head. Plenty of bitter, dry hop that went from start to finish. I thought it was a little one dimensional and offered little in the way of interest or complexity. Further hop towards the end. Refreshing enough but not challenging.

RichardGretton (4020) - Leicestershire, ENGLAND - FEB 16, 2003
Very pale flat looking beer. Lightly hopped aroma with a fairly watery but slightly sweet flavour. Clean tasting but bland.

Hildigöltur (5106) - København, DENMARK - FEB 16, 2003
[Canned 330ml) Beautiful golden colour. Very hoppy, crisp, clean and dry. A nice example of a classic German Pilsner.

neilrichards (191) - Leicestershire, ENGLAND - AUG 10, 2002
Like many other continental lager-type pilseners. Refreshing a crisp without being anything too special. Quite hoppy and averagely gassy.

No head, plenty of condition and a bland taste with a hint of fruitiness.
