shrubber85 (4843) - Greenville, Indiana, USA - JUN 18, 2008
Bottle. Light metallic barley malt aroma. Golden yellow color with moderate head. LIghtly creamy barley malt and strong grassy hops flavor. Nice typical northern German pilsner - drier and hoppier than its southern cousins.

Maria (7805) - Thisted, DENMARK - JUN 11, 2008
Golden and pearly with an OK head. The aroma has notes of malt, hops, light straw and fruit. The flavour is crisp and refreshing with a nice bitterness, notes of hope, light malt, light fruit and citrus in the finish. It’s a nice thirst quencher.

Kavu (938) - Jyväskylä, FINLAND - MAY 27, 2008
Just like every other lager I’ve tasted. No big flaws, but no personality either. The foam is a bit ugly and too light, the aroma and flavor have nothing worth mentioning. Drinkable but not among my favourites.

Pumpauf (28) - Kirkholm, Juelsminde, DENMARK - MAY 21, 2008
Had a Holsten near Hamburg from tap. Nice and stabile head eventhough it tastet very much dilutet. clear golden colour but a very weak body and only a little dry finish. boring and def. not "premium"
