2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20 joeneugs (1423) - Livermore, California, USA - MAR 23, 2010
A little better than most of the American made macros, but more expensive. It pours a clear yellow color with a decent white head. The aroma is very weak with some light hints of corn and cardboard. The flavor is sweet corn with a dryer, slightly hoppy finish. Better mouthfeel than most pale lagers.

Pours golden yellow with a decent white head. Actually, it’s the clearest beer I’ve ever seen. Aroma- dry grass, skunky, yeast. Taste- skunky, grassy, a little sweet from the yeast. Light bodied, yet has a bit of depth.
2.6 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 FreshHawk (596) - Iowa City, Iowa, USA - MAR 15, 2010
On-tap.
A - Light straw color with a good sized white head.
S - Light and clean with most of the smell being the grainy and grassy slightly sweet Euro Pale Lager smell.
T - Mostly a grainy sweetness along with a bit of grassy flavor. Has a slight hint of tea like bitterness.
M - Light body with decent carbonation. Fairly smooth.
D - Light and easy to drink, like most of the style. Taste isn’t great, but compared to other beers like it not bad.
Notes: It is like other Euro Pale Lagers, made for mass consumption so easy to drink and pretty inoffensive flavor. Compared to other beers like this one, it probably has a slight edge.
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 BusBoy (38) - , California, USA - MAR 13, 2010
Light and heavy carbonated. Skunky and malty. Very malty flavor with a very sour finish. Typical pale lager. Refreshing and delicious. I could drink litres of this stuff. Beer doesn’t have to be complicated to be good.
1.5 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20 ExpendableHero (518) - Florida, USA - MAR 12, 2010
Like a pale lager plus. Pours a weak golden color. Very carbonated/fizzy, smells of floral hops. No visible head formation. Taste is bland, a bit bitter, but unoffensive. Not bad, but not good either.
2.4 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 brenn79 (859) - Idaho, USA - MAR 11, 2010
On draft at Daanens- Pours pale golden with a decent head, aroma is nothing better than your average pale lager. The flavor tastes like an amped up pale lager, very disappointing. This is from Belgium?

UPDATED: MAY 16, 2010 Pretty sweet aroma. Not what I expected - a little bitter. Has some character to it, but certainly nothing special.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 inbirraveritas (712) - Budapest, HUNGARY - MAR 11, 2010
0.5 l bottle.
Brewed in Bőcs by licence with 5% ABV on the label.
Pours a clear golden with a quickly diminishing, broad pored head, the carbonation’s soft/average.
Sweetish, malty and hoppy nose, the taste is sweet, too.
Hay, grassy and floral aromas in the middle, the finish is bittersweet and light dry.
Kinda light and easy drinkable beer without any particular characters.
