Bart (2332) - Brussels, BELGIUM - DEC 11, 2005
Golden colour, rather small, diminishing white head. Fresch malty aroma, smouth taste, rather bitter finish. Nothing special, just another international lager

PhillyBeer2112 (2328) - Oviedo, Florida, USA - JUN 9, 2003
Pretty stinky at first whiff (green bottle) but the mercaptans wafted away leaving a light malt and noble hop aroma. Gold but empty looking with thin yet firm head. Surprising body and round sweetness! Underhopped, esp in the finish, leaving a lingering sweetness, while too slight to be cloying, is too much nevertheless.

Indra (2323) - Overland Park, Kansas, USA - MAY 24, 2004
Bottled. Doesn’t possess so much an aroma as an odor, skunky and very bland, perhaps some faint vegetal hop. Pale golden color with a slight, fine head and an almost total lack of lacing. Flavor is dry and somewhat malty with a crisp, lightly bitter finish. Not much depth here, this is basically your quintessential "fizzy yellow beer". Comparable to something like Heineken.

TheGrandMaster (2308) - Auckland, NEW ZEALAND - SEP 17, 2006
Poured from the can (as part of a blind lager tast test - probably my worst drinking night ever). Pale gold, fizzy and a frothy white head. Metallic, with just a little bit of sweet malt. (For the record, and not surprisingly, I got only 1/6).

Benzai (2298) - Oirschot, NETHERLANDS - JUL 19, 2011
Nothing special, just another regular pilsener. Nice yellow/golden color, average smell, decent taste and a low to medium body.

Palidor19 (2296) - Brandon, Florida, USA - AUG 5, 2006
I was dissapointed by this beer. Although it was light and smooth it lack the care and prestige that beers from this region should have, mild malts and almost no hops.

rederic (2269) - montréal, Quebec, CANADA - JUL 5, 2005
500ml can, pale golden yellow hue, good foamy white head, with lacing, fresh floral hay, pale malt and herbal aroma follows through on a medium-bodied palate with crisp floral hop, hint of bubblegum, sweetish pale malt accent, fruity in a shy hop clean finish.

Light copper pour with big spongy white head. Smells like aluminum or is that the taste? Definitely different.
