Z crisp and clean lager. Like the best of the Northern German pilsners. Sometimes this is excactly what you want. BlackForestCO (819), Fort Collins, Colorado, USA Sep 19, 2008 Bottle. Poured a crystal clear yellow color with a thick, rocky white head that left some spotty lacing. Aroma of light pale malts, some light honey, and some soft, floral hops. Smooth, lightly sweet entry with some light honey leads into a lightly spicy, floral hoppiness that finishes with a light fruity citrus (mainly orange peel). Low carbonation, smooth on the palate, light hop bite on the finish. While it isn’t very complex, this is a well-crafted beer that really shows the difference between a good lager and a US Macro. DruncanVeasey (2690), The Penguin’s Arms, Europe, Warwickshire, England Sep 16, 2008 Bottle from Tossco (how did this one slip through the net??). Pillowy lager pour with a silky head of suds. Sensible sweet aroma of pale lager malts, soapy citrus, slight hop leafiness. Saaz apparent at first sip, with an added splash of watery citrus and floral hops. Slick and insipid. Does watery English golden ale/ Czech pils crying out for an infusion of US hops better than the English or the Czechs. Decent flowery lager if taken as that alone, but seriously disappointing from a US brewer. evilsoc (191), Wales Sep 16, 2008 Golden blonde white headed lager, Aroma of flowers, honey. A sweetish floraly flavour carries through and reminds me of a very average british summer ale, some lemon. Thin body. Short finish which makes you really look for flavour. Not a good beer at all considering the reputation of the brewery. JustinFromAL (114), Birmingham, Alabama, USA Sep 12, 2008 Bottle. Pours paled golden with minimal off-white head. Herbal nose. Not a bad beer per say, just average. It is what promises to be though, a smooth, light, slightly hoppy summertime beer. daknole (2805), Plantation, Florida, USA Sep 8, 2008 Why oh why would SN stoop to this level? Why? WHY? Damn it WHY? Not good. Not worth it at all. daniele (1642), Italy Sep 8, 2008 oro schiuma media piuttosto grossolana non molto persistente note lievi di luppolo un po di zolfo in bocca non molto corpo luppolo delicato piacevole non intenso
