bottle from mein-biershop.de. Clear pale yellow, large white head. Shay malty base with nice aromatic hops with resiny and grassy hints, also hints of hay.

Bottle looks really good. Beer in the glass zippy, small head. Starts mild, not too dry, modest sweet. More and more spicy-grasy with an interesting caramel touch. Well balanced finish, quite drinkable. Nice!

Pale gold with a slight white head. Aroma was of grain and hay. Flavour had some sweet malt and a bitter finish.

500 ml bottle.
Pours a golden colour with a small white head. Aroma of really fresh grassy hops with strong herbs. Flavour of strong fresh hops, flowers, grass, herbs, hay and a good grainy malty body. Light bodied, soft carbonation and a dryish, strong grassy finish with surprisingly high bitterness. Fresh and clean, just like a pils should be.

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!
Ins Glas ergießt sich ein kräftig goldgelbes Pils mit wenig CO2 und einer mittelgroben Krone, welche schnell zusammenfällt. Geruchlich dominiert ein bitterhopfiges, leicht muffiges Aroma. Der Antrunk erfolgt sehr herb, bitterhopfig, meiner Meinung nach zu herb. Der Abgang wird etwas milder, allerdings wird’s im zweiten Abgang wieder sehr herb. Geht so.

Bottle. Light golden, hazy, small and fully diminishing head. Light to moderate malty - lightly grainy and lightly sweetish aroma, light hoppyness. Medium, malty - lightly grainy and lightly sweetish flavor, light grassy hoppyness. Finish is average, malty - lightly grainy and lightly sweetish, light grassy hoppyness. Lightly sweetish and grainy pils - nothing special.

Bottled (from mein-biershop.de). Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is sweet malts, mild grains as well as some mild toasted malts. Flavour is bready, grainy, mildly rubbery and also quite floral and grassy.

Hopfiger aber sehr süßer Antrunk. Die an sich natürliche und etwas grasige Hopfigkeit verschwindet fast unter der Süße. Daher ist auch die Herbe nur leicht zu schmecken. Erst im hinteren Abgang pendelt sich die Süße auf ein angenehmes Niveau ein, hier ist das Bier noch leicht aber bestimmt hopfig und leicht herb. Disharmonisches und zu süßes Pils. Test vom 12.10.2008, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 9,5,7,8,11,7 - 7,25

0.5 l bottle, thanks Timo A and hanniku! Golden color. Sweet malty aroma and flavor with toffee, some fruity esters (lemon), hint of petrol and hint of herbal hops. Slightly papery. Low on hops. Not fresh (BB Aug 2010).

Sparkly and gold with a thick head. Herbal hop aroma with a fresh pale malt underpinning. Hay-like herbal bitterness. Lean body at first but gets creamier towards the finish. Clean, decent.
