330 ml bottle. Bright and clear golden colour, with a thin white foamy head. Plain enough aroma of malt and hops. Tastes quite malty but with a very hoppy bitterness. Heavy carbonation (more so than on draught), medium body, with a very dry and bitter finish. Decent pilsner, but a little dry to drink more than a bottle.

Bottle@home from Drinkstore
Medium gold with fluffy off-white head and lemony herbal hop aroma. Crisp carbonation with dry malt and grassy hops with a touch of metal in the finish but in general a good german style pils.

Sample at Porterhouse Central. Clear pale straw color with a thin white head that evaporates quickly to an outer ring. Spotty lacing. Aroma of sweet malt and fruit. Light body with flavors of bready malt, fruit and mild herbal hops. The finish is lightly bitter with a short hoppy aftertaste. Just average overall.

Definitely a pilsner, but so much more body and depth than any other pilsner I have had. Great toasted cereal flavours, with a very distinct bitterness, crisp and dry finish.

3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Pours a pale golden yellow, good frothy head, medium carbonation.
Smells of hops and barley, nice and floral with a hint of citrus.
Taste Toasted hops, spices and nutmeg.
This has a nice toasted flavor of medium length that sits well on the tongue and is well balanced. Also a nice mild bitter after taste.
A dam good beer.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
On draught at the Porterhouse
Pours a golden color with a frothy white head and good lace.
The aroma is floral and sweet smelling. The beer smells both clean and hoppy.
The flavor is clean and has a nice bit of floral hops. The beer is a tad sweet, particularly in the finish, the hops are nice but it seems to have that breakfast cereal thing a lot of Eastern European lagers get once they’ve reached the US. I imagine that if this made it stateside it would be a dead ringer for one of those beers.
Alas it is pleasant and enjoyable.
