Overall...not bad. Poured golden with a medium head in a pilsner glass. Aroma of pale malt. Taste of malt with a sharp bite of hops.

Bottle from Radeberg. Pours beautifully. Light golden color with a thick white head. Very mild aroma. Slightly spicy flavor with a moderate bitter taste. Enjoyable.

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.

Tasted 13/03/2007. 330mlb bottle from Rumble’s Wellington. Pours a very pale gold, bright, with a fading white head. Mild nose - a mixture of slightly stale grainy malt, spicy herbal hops and a soft creamed honey. Dry in the mouth, though with a decent weight. Grainy malt notes give way to a strong herbal bitterness, a little steely, with spicy edges that hint of rocket. Quite bitter in the finish and lingering on quite a while. More honey notes come through late, with further herbal hints - slightly floral this time. A little tired but decently bitter at least. Not at it’s best, admittedly, but I doubt this would make many top ten pilsner lists, in a blind tasting, even on it’s best day.

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.

Clear gold with good, foamy white head / Nose of grain with light honey note / Light to medium body, crisp with good balance and dry finish / Clean, relatively big and slightly floral flavors of grain, with faint honey notes / A fine pils.

Sampled in Trier, Germany: Aroma is of cereal malts with hops in the background. Poured translucent golden, with a white head the stayed on top of the beer throughout drinking. Flavor is a bit malty and medium dry, not as dry and crisp as a Bitburger, and definitely less hop flavor. Light body. Alright.

500 mL can. (Why is this a "premium lager" - it says "Pilsner" on the can?) Golden with thick foamy head which gradually reduces. Smells like . . . green. Hops, I guess, but sweeter. Heavily carbonated. Dry - bitter in a good way. Watery in a bad way. Sweetens as it warms. Not much else.
