2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
On tap at an lunch meeting with an architect…..stupid fancy boy thinks he knows beer…..why I otta. Ok I just drank three pints of this stuff in under an hour do to work client pressure, I’m not complaining I’m just gooned and will be napping the rest of the day. Hick. All Blacks vs. Springboks in tri-nation cup play, All Blacks winning 17-7 at the 32 min mark. Beer looks like a beer from a commercial perfect gold, white cap, condensation dripping off glass. Beer taste / aroma are basically identical, wet hay, fresh apple cider, low volumes of skunk, more grass, herbalish hops, very carbonated. Christ after my second pint I’m belching constantly, after third pint feeling discomfort. Uggggggg……….need to let out Barney style burp, client won’t shut the F-up about vapor barriers……WHO GIVES A FUCK. Whatever good enough beer to drink especially at the price of me not paying and this was better than I remember from way back in the day but I see no reason to ever revisit this beer again. Wholly crap fancy pant Architect just ordered a fourth for himself, All Blacks continue to dominate game. Someone please tell me why Rugby is not more popular?!?!?!? Some fast so violent………………………………………………………BLEEEEEEEEEEEEETCHHHHH
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
From the can marked 06721. It pours a well-carbonated golden yellow with a fizzy, short-lived head typical for a pilsener. The aroma is alive with German mallts and bread although there is something a little off about it but not enough to deflect my interest. The body was moderately creamy and smooth. Plenty of malts in the taste but smooth to the finish.

Sampled on 7/17/2011. This pilsner pours a light yellow gold color from a 500ml bottle. Small to medium sized white foamy head. The aroma is grainy, grassy and herbal. A light to medium bodied Pilsner. The malts are grainy and grassy. The hops are herbal and slightly spicy. Lively very active carbonation. Crisp and clean. Light and refreshing. Perhaps a touch of cardboard in there as well. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly sweet.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 10/20
Pours pale gold into a shaker. Bright white head with medium retention recedes leaving spot lacing. Sweet cookie and bread aromas. Crisp with sourdough and slight corn. The trip to the US probably didn’t help it any.
