MoritzF (7756) - Bochum, GERMANY - MAR 27, 2006
(swing top bottle) Clear straw golden colour with a fluffy foamy white head, leaving some lace. Slightly dusty and sweet malty nose with herbal and spicy hops. Very tasty and moderately sweet malty taste initially with a soft but balanced herbal hoppy note getting stronger towards the medium dry finish, which is a bit (ethereally) spicy and has an almost perfectly balanced bitterness with a dense note of caramel in the aftertaste. An outstanding Pilsener, more than ever for the Sauerland region.

MichaelBruch (1493) - Wanne-Eickel, GERMANY - APR 14, 2013
Flasche mit McTapps verköstigt. Ein feines, teilweise blumiges und hopfig-aromatisches Pils, das am Ende trocken endet ohne bitter zu werden. Groß, echt groß. Nicht ultimativ, aber sehr gute Wertarbeit.

pivnizub (8000) - Bochum, Porúří, GERMANY - MAR 25, 2006
Swing-top bottle (bought at the brewery): Clear, golden, bigger almost rocky white head, long lasting, visible carbonation;sweet pale malty nose with aromatic noble hops and without any trace of cardboard; moderate sweet-bitter flavour, medium bodied; long bitter-aromatic-sweet finish. A very fine Pils, that could have been brewed in Bohemia......A real gem, compared to the beers brewed just around the corner in the neighbourhood: Veltins (gulp!) and Warsteiner ( cough...)........

McTapps (1492) - Ruhrgebiet, GERMANY - APR 14, 2013
Deep rich golden colour with low head and medium body. Nose of hops. Taste of rich hops, low malt, sweet grass, white peaches, nectarines, raspberries and mild grains. So easy and nice to drink, one of the best Pilsner available. Light bitter but also quite sweet finish, very refreshing and quaffable. Enjoyed it a lot.

Bottle, Courtesy of MoritzF - thanks!
Fat hayish and herbal nose. Hazy green golden, nice foamy lacing head. Bready base, citric dry hop play on top, spice (ginger). Chewy body, light nutty aftertaste. Interresting Pils!

Light lager nose, yellow color, fluffy spongy white head. Citrus malt, lemony flavor. Tight quick hop bitter. Light, refreshing, decent but not special.

YogiBeera (2435) - Hamburg, GERMANY - MAY 1, 2006
Thanks MoitzF!!! Opens with the loudest plop I ever heard. Purs a light golden color with a small medium frothy head on top. Light hay and grain nose. Very refreshing grain, light sweet grass taste. A decent Pilsner.

bierkoning (8958) - La Tropica, NETHERLANDS - MAY 10, 2006
Creamy barnyard aroma. Creamy, buttery flavor with some hay, hops and a touch of orange. Malty. Is this really a pilsener? Bottle from Pivnizub, with my thanks!

dortmunder (961) - Herdecke, GERMANY - SEP 12, 2005
Bottled. Clear golden colour. Medium head. Herbal hoppy aroma. Hoppy taste with a slight sweetness and a nice hop-bitter finish. Well done pilsner.

Ungstrup (26267) - Citizen of the universe, DENMARK - FEB 5, 2010
Bottled. A golden beer with a thick cream colored head. The aroma has notes of malt and straw. And the flavor is sweet malty with notes of straw.
