COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Bottom fermented pilsner style beer. Very elegant, pale in color, dry and hoppy. Its crisp clean taste is due to the extra fine Bavarian hops.

imdownthepub (7171) - Banbury, Oxfordshire, ENGLAND - NOV 6, 2004
Bottled. Pale gold with gassed head. Yeasty dry pils with a reasonable hoppiness and crisp malt. Some taste through the CO2, just a little ligtweight.

erway (1004) - Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA - OCT 17, 2004
Pours a light golden with a rather small head. Nice grassy noble hop aroma. Innitial taste is hoppy with a nice sweetness. Firm body. Finnish is slightly bitter with a fair amount of diacetyl. A nice pairing with the grilled hebi I was enjoying.

SDalkoholic (1490) - Chula Vista, California, USA - OCT 14, 2004
Crystal clear gold and a head that didn’t die out on me, it maintained through out the drink. Good malt character with a sour grass flavor and some sweet bread or doughness about it. Is fairly decent but only something i’d drink again as a last resort.

Frank (1966) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - SEP 21, 2004
A solid pils. Not as clean as I would like to see but that might be due to improper storage on the part of the retailer. Really, I’d like to try this on tap. There may well be a great beer lurking in there somewhere.

presario (3977) - Stampede City, Alberta, CANADA - SEP 18, 2004
Light fizzy head on a golden liquid. Hop aroma tilted towards vegetable. Decent Pilsener. Not a big finish but enough hop taste. Hops leaning towards harsh but still very tasty. Finding it in cans it would be a good beer for the park.
