2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20 lagermonkey (725) - Marietta, Georgia, USA - AUG 8, 2006
Pours a bright deep gold. Thin creamy head with lots of lace. Smells lightly grassy with noble hops.
Tastes grassy, lightly sweet malt. Some faint but strident noble hops in the finish and aftertaste. More creamy than crisp, finishes clean, no real aftertaste. Nice for summer but overall very average. Not crisp enough, not enough hops, pretty dull and drab.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20 thedm (4116) - Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA - AUG 4, 2006
This bottled brew poured a small sized head of foamy fine to large sized white colored bubbles that was mostly lasting and left behind a transparent softly carbonated orange colored body. The aroma was bready hoppy malty and sweet. The mouth feel was tingly at the start and mellow in the finish. The flavor contained notes of malt hops and was sweet and crisp. An OK brew just nothing special.

Defo one for the summer. Aroma gives grassy and florasl hops over pilsner malts. Taste is similar, very easy drinking though ends a bit nothing.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 rlgk (5238) - Skövde, SWEDEN - JUL 21, 2006
Yellow/golden beer with a white head. Quite weak malty aroma. Malty and a bit sugary flavor, some hops after a while.
4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 EithCubes (3054) - GERMANY - JUL 14, 2006
Bottled. Sweet and delicious malt aroma with healthy hops. Also, light funk and bread. Clear golden pour with a huge frothy white head. Taste is very herby with a good balance between hoppy bitterness and sweet maltiness, saazy, pleasantly floral. Medium body. Velvety smooth and creamy, long and lasting aftertaste. Dry malty finish. A Bohemian Helles (though with nice saazy bitterness), I’d say, and a top-notch one at that.

The aroma is grass, with fruit and dusty citrus notes.
Light body with medium carbonation. Nicely balanced, doesn’t get watery in the middle.

3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 scotty (889) - SCOTLAND - JUN 21, 2006
This was a 1/2 litre bottle from Asda, Carlisle ( I think!), it has a different label to the one illustrated, everything else seems to be the same tho’
This is a fine Czech Pils, smooth, well balanced, has that characteristic slightly sweet malty character. There is a sharp fruity acidity that lingers on the palate for ages afterwards....lovely! A quality brew.....looks good too!
