DerWeg (748), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Sep 3, 2008 Bottle gift, Irish Pub Leipzig. Pours clear gold with artificially consistent head, little lacing. Faint aroma of hops, tastes a little metallic and sweet. Unpleasant. Jine (889), Nutley, New Jersey, USA Sep 1, 2008 8.25.08 On tap at Great Notch Inn. Basically just a standard unimpressive pilsner. Not really worth $4.50. rocbyter (902), Waterbury, Connecticut, USA Aug 27, 2008 Not much of any aroma here. I can get very light hints of grain. Clear golden color with a small white head. Taste is very light sweet flavor in the beginning with any flavor fading away in the finish. Light as water. Quietman (160), Florida, USA Aug 24, 2008 Clear gold,white head.Pine,grass,hay aroma.Bitter up front but not overly so.Slight sweetness.Crisp,drinkable.Dry,bitter finish.Not outstanding but not bad. grant (792), Long Beach, CA/Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA Aug 23, 2008 Pristine straw color with expansive but hollow head. Deep grainy, chloriney aroma, light herbal hops. Smooth, languorously textured flavor, a little too fatty and full. Sweetish with very light bitterness, sharp pepperiness. jezmez68 (332), Chesterton, Indiana, USA Aug 22, 2008 Pours golden with a nice white head. Not much aroma, but a decent taste. Hell, it was the official drink in Saxony. Nice example of a pils. EHSRanders (1121), Randers C, Denmark Aug 15, 2008 Bottle. Pale yellow colour with large creame white mostly lasting head. Hoppy aroma. sweet hoppy flavor. Bitter finish. DrDavid (957), Johnson, Vermont, USA Aug 14, 2008 (Bottle). A decent, but not outstanding, German Pils. Aroma is grass, hay, and some malt. Flavor is smooth and balanced, and a bit of hops, refreshing but not particularly memorable. I suspect that the German nobility, if motivated, could do a lot better.
