MartinT (5026), Montreal, Quebec, Canada Dec 9, 2005 The Lure: A lingering head shrouds the mild fruitiness and dormant haystack. Cereal sweetness eventually surfaces, but nothing here makes me want to take the plunge.
The Festivities: Toasted malt flavors dwell in a crisp body which seems to lack some girth. Or maybe the carbonation is too important for my tastes. Either way, a partial flavor void is created, as delicate grassy hops and their wooden bitterness build in the last half, attracting dryness. An easy pint to down.
Transcendence: Burp.
RCL (1443), Waltham, Massachusetts, USA Nov 7, 2009 Fresh baked bread and grass aroma. Aroma is pretty much the same. A bit of hops on the finish linger for 20 seconds or so. Not a bad pilsener. RedhawkFIN (20), Finland Nov 5, 2009 500ml bottle from Munich, Germany. Typical German Pils with quite powerful grassy aftertaste. joeneugs (289), Livermore, California, USA Nov 4, 2009 Pours a pale gold color with a nice whIte head. The aroma is lager like with some pilsner malts coming through. A bit yeasty. Flavor is crisp and refreshing, though kind of ho hum. Hints of apple and cardboard. Not a great beer, but very drinkable. kenb (1100), Oregon, USA Nov 1, 2009 Bottle. Pours a near clear yellow. Small white head. Not much in the nose, some old must hops. Taste is mild, grass, hay, old hops. Body is light/medium. Carbonation is moderate. Not very good. Chapel (329), Levittown, New York, USA Oct 27, 2009 Rather light. Doesn’t do much other than taste clean with a little bit of yeast. Finishes without much of a fight. At the end of the day, there is a reason this is ranked average in its style. Nordcore (266), North of, Norway Oct 20, 2009 Bottle 50 cl. Yellow, clear with a medium white head. Aroma; not to much, but nice soft, sweet malty. Flavor; Malt and also some hoppy sence, ok pilsner. popephred (193), Plainfield, Illinois, USA Oct 14, 2009 Poured from the bottle into a pilsner glass. The pour produced a golder body with a medium white head which mostly diminshed with light lacing. Aroma is light and balanced, leaning toward the malts. Flavor is dry and bitter with a crisp carbonation. Overall palate is unremarkable, corny, with a strong bitter aftertaste. joebudzjoe (222), Connecticut, USA Oct 12, 2009 Bottle. Very crisp and bubbly. Unique bitter taste from the hops. Tastes like the hops are a bit burnt, but I like that for a change.
