COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Steinlager® is a lager with a distinctive grassy note and clean crisp bitterness of green bullet hops. It is balanced with a dry, astringent finish.

Medium gold body with a white head. The aroma was corny with grass and a hint of skunk. The taste was also corny with some metallic notes of grass. The body was thin. A lame lager.

Bottled. This beer pours with only a little head and a clear light gold. It’s a dry, somewhat skunky with a quick bitter finish. I can’t say that I recommend it at all.

Dry, hoppy, carbonated beer. A bit of skunk flavor in most of the bottles although it seemed to vary within the six-pack. Perhaps an old pack of beer, but still drinkable and light. A good overall light finishing beer.

UPDATED: JAN 2, 2006 Bottle in glass. This beer was nice, a bit grassy, colour was satisfying. People say it’s like Heineken, I don’t think so as Heineken is much more bitter and undrinkable.

Not a very good beer. Better than the standard American pilsner, but still not as good as some. Blah.

Pours a clear golden yellow color. Aromas of grass, cheerios, and a touch of flowers. Flavor is kinda sweet to start, citrusy finish with some hop notes.

This beer reminds me of Heineken. Not my style. Too skunky, fat and bitter.

Bottle out of a super cheap sixer at the Class VI store. Yep, pour of gold with a medium sized white head--standard lager. Sweetish, grassy, slight hint of hops and light malts in the nose....nothing unexpected. Equally grainy and grassy in the taste with more of a light hop bite in the finish. Thin and light in the mouth....lightly bitter hops in the end. Not bad or skunky...just ok.
