The bottle fucking kicks ass. Heineken with extra hops is my assessment. Pretty tasty and has a certain thickness that I was not expecting. Skunky, but not skunky in a nasty way. It's part of the flavor if you can believe that. Tastes like lots of cereal grains in this one. I know people who don't like it because of the skunkiness, but I don't particularily mind it at all. I'm sure it would be outstanding on a hot summer day. I would buy it again if it was about half the price it normally is. I like the stuff, but unfortunately won't buy it again because of the price. Ok, MAYBE I might try some again, but it sucks to pay so much for this! OVERPRICED! And a bit bitter.

Jul 15, 2008 This lager has a cult status in the eastern part of Holland. I doubt it’s because of the fine taste. From tap, this is probably as bad as it’s going to get. Skunky smell, skunky flavour as well, makes you say "yuck!" . Dry, but not because of the fine hops. Your mouth runs dry after the first few sips, but that doesn’t make you thirsty for more. Tastes a lot better from a swingtop bottle, nevertheless one of the worst Dutch lagers.

Jul 14, 2008 Aroma of wet bread. Foam on the lighter side, not long lasting. Flavor is pronounced malt and yeast with unremarkable hop finish. Sits well on the tongue, but is not full or particularly clean. Most of the price of this beer must be for the cool cap.

Jul 10, 2008 12 oz bottle - smells kind of funky; almost like the beer is stlil brewing - fresh barley/hops. Looks pretty decent. I guess it’s OK for its’ style and price. I probably won’t buy again.

Jul 8, 2008 There is a lemony, grassy, and hoppy aroma to this pilsner. The head is fluffy but diminishes and the beer is a very light gold color, and is clear. The taste is dry with flavors of apple with bitter hops, and is slightly salty. The beer is pretty thin but easy to drink.

Jul 6, 2008 450ml swingtop botle at Balsam cocktail lounge, Oslo.
Golden, good head. Nice malty aroma, citrusy. Well balanced taste with european hops. One of the better lagers.
