3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 CheersMate (1261) - Fremont (Seattle), Washington, USA - NOV 4, 2007
Pretty good pale malt aroma. The smell is rather weak, but still very good when my nose picks it up. The hops don’t really come out in the aroma as much as I would like them to. I mean if you have pictures of hops on the bottle they better play a major role in this beer. Very gold in color, so I guess what I am trying to say is that this beer looks average. Decent hop and malt balance. The beer is somewhat smooth. There is a great balance, but both flavors are rather weak. I taste the hops, and I think that the bittering hop is okay, but I would like this beer to have a stronger taste. The flavor is balanced but it needs to be more intense. I taste more hops than I do malt. To me a great pils should have a good balance. The Pilsner Urquell had this. Decent palate, okay flavor, and weak smell. A brew that is worth trying, but there are better pilsners out there.

12 oz. bottle via trade with jasonmech77 - Pours a hazy light golden color with a half finger thick white head. Faint lacing. Lively carbonation. Aroma is spicey, herbal hops. Nice! Flavor is light citrus and herbal hops. Light to medium body. This beer went down well after working in the yard most of the day. Thanks Jason.

Bottle. Citrus aroma. Nice yellow color with a white head that lasts a little while. The more of the beer I drink, the more I taste grapefruit, but not in a terribly bitter way. The mouthfeel is light, and the aftertaste if mildly bitter. A very enjoyable beer.

Bottle. Light malt notes of grain or straw, light hops of herbs and grass with no noticable yeast smell. In the background there’s a faint aroma of some kind of fruit like apple or a white wine. Head is large and rocky, white as snow, has excellent lacing and is fully lasting. Body is sparkling yet slightly hazy and golden. Flavor is light all around but finishes moderately bitter. Palate is light to medium, watery and slightly creamy with a lively carbonation. It finishes slightly dry with a hint of alcohol. The crispness is the best part of this beer, I could drink mass quantities of these.

Bottle. Poured a pale yellow body with thin head. Aroma is floral hops. Flavor has a nice hop bitterness to it, light citrus, and sweet malt. Smooth, well carbonated and an easy sipper.

It pisses me off beyond words to see this beer rated higher than some of the great german pilsners....but I have come to accept that the vast majority of the patrons of this website are tasteless "hopheads." Good beer, nonetheless. Not a traditional pils, however....Tastes like a Pils with an IPA finish....but still tasty.
