3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle from the grocery store. Pours a copper body with a crisp white head. Lots of german malts, grassy, earthy, dry and subtle. Light grainy finish.
3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 14/20
Poured from the bottle a reddish golden with thin white head that lasted for much of the glass and left good lacing. Nose is grainy, similar to a macro, and the mouthfeel of this medium bodied beer is somewhat tingly. Flavor is an odd mix of grain, chocolate and tobacco, all of which led to a short dry finish
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
UPDATED: JAN 31, 2009 Bright yellow with a quick fading white head. Spicy, earthy,l hop aroma and some straw malt. Starts with a light body in the mouth, light malt leads into a herbal, tobacco, hop with a dry finish and lingering of both malt and salty hop flavors. I like the time span and fluctuation of flavors.

Golden blond coloured beer with some very light carbonation, and a rather small white head. Little sweet hoppy aroma with some grainy touches. Medium palate. Finish is sweet bitter hoppy, some light herby sweet hints with it. Medium lager.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
For some reason in the last few months (or from what I’ve noticed), this beer has exploded in New York -- and with good reason.
Jever pours to a light golden color with a 1.5 finger head (in a pilsner glass). Smells grassy and lightly hoppy as a German Pilsener should. On the palate, it’s light without being waify, and contains hints of citrus.
This food goes fantastically with food and I especially enjoyed my last experience when it was paired with semi-spicy Thai food.

Big white head colour of straw. Aroma is grassy with malt and hints of hops. Flavour is light, malty with a light biterness in the aftertaste. decent pilsner but not more.

3.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
This is a great commercial german pilsner. Clear golden color, big white head. The aroma is like a classic german pilsner, with a little more hops than usual. It has a very full mouthfeel compared to most commercial pilsners, and a strong taste of malts and hops. It has a long finish, and it was the best part for me. A good macro pilsner, whould love to have it more often.
