Sorry for the german rating, but this is a lousy rating from my "newbie" time (2007-2009), and it’s not worth of being translated. I just added it for the statistics, and to complete my backlog!
Im Glas siehts auch sehr fein aus, leicht trübe Farbe, schöne große mittelporige Krone. Aromatisch kommt es wirklich sehr hopfig rüber. Der Antrunk ist überaus rezent und spritzig frisch. Das Hopfenaroma kommt einfach super zur Geltung. Nach ner Weile entwickelt das Bier einen bitteren Eigengeschmack, der aber nicht allzu aufdringlich ist. Im Großen und Ganzen sollte man es mal probiert haben, aber was besonderes isses nicht…

Bottle by 7/2012. Nose has gentle sweet citrus, very light, soft grass and soft chalk. Deep, bright golden body with a creamy white head. Taste is grassy and very soft, low bitterness and little sweetness, gentle grains and malt coming out, that mineral quality backed way off. Medium body could use a little more spritz. There’s a greasy and somewhat stale quality here, but on the whole, i like the effort.

12/1/11. 500mL bottle. Slightly hazy golden pour with a small frothy white head that fades to a film and laces in streaky rings. Somewhat plain aroma that shows a touch of metal, cream, and sweet corn. Sweet corny flavor that touches on metal, grass, and something slightly salty that reminds me of ketchup. High, burning carbonation. Meh.

Pours a deep straw color with a huge white head that surprisingly dissipates almost instantly. Smells of bready malt with lots of melanoids. Slightly earthy spicy hop bite. Taste is bready burnt malt with a hint of earthy spicy hops. Medium to thin body with a crisp level of carbonation and a sweet slick mouthfeel. Decent brew but a little boring even for the style. Light and refreshing I could see drinking some on a hot summer day.

Bottle@Home. Butter mixed with hops. Pale yellow, fine white head, good lace. Malty, light buttery, herbal hops. Medium body. Refreshing. If you think away the butter then it’s quite a nice pilsener I guess.

Hazy honey color with a lot of fine sediment. Nice, long-lasting head, good lacing. More a Belgian wheat beer than a pils. Clean taste of wheat and light caramel and citrus. Nice old-world hops to finish. Pretty darn good (especially for an organic), and drinkable over a long evening.

Bright straw color, bold grainy aroma with hoppy spice. Satisfying, thirst-quenching flavor focuses on old world hops. Very full-bodied for a pilsener. One of the best "organic" brews that I’ve tried.
