Not clear, no head, dull gold. Sweet honey and toasted biscuit aroma. Sweet round flavor profile lacking any crispness you would expect in a lager. Rather watery also. Not a well realized beer.

slightly hazy golden with a white head that disappears quickly. funky dirty european lager aroma. light clean slightly bitter flavor. light body with nice carbonation. the finish leaves a horrible metallic aftertaste. i had some major problems drinking this one because of the aftertaste if it weren’t for that i would have enjoyed this one.

Bottle from <a href=http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en& target=blank>Beers Of The World in Rochester, New York. Golden yellow in colour with a dissipating off-white head. The aroma is rather light with some floral hops and apples. The flavour was slightly swee, herbal and floral, grassy. Minor bitter mouthfeel, light body, medium carbonation. Finishes light but very drinkable.

Dainty, crystal clearly yellow, with a frothy head. Small bubbles, and not very carbonated. Dry and wheaty, lightly malted aroma. Very crisp and refreshing. This is the type of beer I like in the very hot dog days of summer. Not as well-rounded as the Czech lager, which I much prefer.

Bomber bottle. Hazy golden pour with a moderate frothy white head that diminished slowly. Moderate floral hop aroma. Medium body with soft carbonation. Same floral hoppy flavor with a small biiter finish of average duration. Drinkable, but not special.

Pours very very light amber, bordering on light yellow. Aroma of grass and honey. Similar flavor. Overall, not bad for a warm day, but it’s not something I’d pick up most other times.

Pours a light amber color, with a light white head. Nose of honey, banana and malt. A very smooth beer.

The 22 oz bottle poured a slightly cloudy light amber beverage with a small frothy white head that was mostly diminishing and left some lacing on the glass. The aroma presented a nice sweet fruity nose with notes of banana and just a hint of sweet grass. The body was medium full with lively carbonation and a light, dry, refreshing texture. The flavor starts off sweet and fruity but there was a slight sour note lurking off to the side of the palate. The finish was long and the sweetness persisted as a slight bitterness crept in.
