Bottle. Slightly sweet creamy barley malt and light grass hops aroma. Clear golden yellow color with small head. Slightly sweet milky barley malt and moderate grass hops flavor. Decent easy drinking CGP - would have like more maltiness.

Bottle (thanx to Q.-D.): Pale greenish-golden, a bit unclear, mid-sized white stable fluffy head; solid floral-hoppy nose with a hayish touch; moderate dryish bitter-sweet flavour, light bodied; lingering hoppy finish with an increasing dryness in the aftertaste. Fine, not too great brew.....

(bottle, 33cl) Slightly unclear, pale golden colour with a blond medium-sized foamy head. Light-sweet and slightly perfumed grainy malty taste with a tinge of grassy hops. Moderately bitter flavour, light to medium bodied with a soft carbonation. Pale malt-character with light grainy accents and a touch of grassy hops; dry and hop bitter grassy finish. Didn´t expect that much and was quite surprised. 24.XI.09

bottle, bought in Wolnzach. Clear pale yellow, large white head. Hoppy nose. Shy malty base, intensive aromatic and bitter hop flavours, especially in the finish. A well-balanced Pilsener, although I can’t see any Bohemian character in it, I would classify it as Classic German Pilsener.

Bottle, 4.9%. Clear pale golden colour. Small white head. Quite bitter flavour, and quite clean, but not much more. Slightly rough. Probably good for long sessions.

33 cL bottle. Pours pale yellow with a collapsing white head. Dry and grassy hops aroma. Light breadish malt flavour. Light spiced bitterness towards the finish. Light acidic touch into the finish.

On tap in a restaurant in Burghausen, Germany. Poured to a golden yellow beer with a white, thick head that had aromas of yeast and hops. Initial flavor of yeast and finished with a slight bitter taste.

On tap at Alpenrose Mittenwald Bayern 25 Jun 07. Pale golden colored. A large, white fluffy head. Sweet hoppy aroma. Watery flavor with a sourish, dry bitter aftertaste.

bottled. straw colour, red berry aroma, very light and grassy. melt-in-the-mouth texture and quite a lot of hallertau bitterness, nice stuff

Very well balanced pils with a bitternes that reminds of a classic german pils but enough flowery notes to let it be a bohemian. Other than that it is nice golden and has a beautifull mind...I mean head!
