2.6 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20 DavidO (10) - Potomac, Maryland, USA - JUN 3, 2007
This was a golden yellow beer poured straight from the bottle. There was no head, and it had a slightly lemony flavor. This would be better served cold and is "OK" for a hot summer’s day but little else.
1.4 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 5/20 jgentgesdo (596) - Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA - MAY 12, 2007
Pours sickly yellow with a small white head. Nose is sour malt and corn mash. The flavor is sweet and sour, rather stale, very little hops character. Thin and watery. Bleh.
1.8 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20 NachlamSie (2077) - Tennessee, USA - MAY 9, 2007
Bottle split with my Polish roomie. Pours a bold gold color with a nice tall white head. Aroma is mildly skunked with corn husks, hay, some paper. Flavor is better and certainly cleaner, but not great. There’s a fairly malty foundation providing some sugary character, wooden hops, corn, basically this is a yellow lager. That being said, it is relatively clean and crisp given some of its abominable peers and it could certainly be worse. I’m glad I got it for free. I might drink one of these again if it was free and I was already drunk and eager to get even drunker.
2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20 pnista (1007) - Bloomington, Indiana, USA - MAY 5, 2007
It is what it is. I got this for free, so I’m rating it. Clear yellow liquid with little bubbles coming to the top, a large but quickly thinning white head. Surprising given the lack of a hiss when I opened this... not that surprising given I accidentally frozen this beer solid. anyhow. The nose smells like corny adjunct. No skunk really, but there’s some slightly spicy hops, nothing special though. In the mouth this does what a lager is supposed to. On the thin side with a little bit of body, but not overboard. The flavor is similarly described. I can taste the adjunct ladenness. This reminds me of the champaign of beers! Corny sorts of flavors a bit of toast and some very light spicey hops. A little bit of skunk, but barely noticable. Grainy aftertaste. I swear I can taste the alcohol in this, which given the ABV is a bad sign. Still, I could chug this on a hot day.

this one was, ok. pretty standard flavor for a "premium lager" from europe. its pretty easy to drink and goes down smooth, just nothing else to really mention.
2.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20 bboeckl (142) - Grafton, Wisconsin, USA - APR 29, 2007
On tap. Pale yellow. Thin body. Thick foamy, frothy head. Strong Saaz hops taste. Nothing to write home about. Easy drinking.

12oz Bottle enjoyed during Canucks victory over the Stars in game 7. Nothing spectacular but in terms of a lager its pretty damn good. Clean crisp & tasty. Tasted good even after Boskeun enabled my taste buds

Pour is gold with a white head. Aroma is very hoppy for a lager and some malts are there as well. Flavor is typical dull and bland lager. I was hoping for better things with this one. Still this is ok for having after some yard work on a warm day.
