| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 4, 2005 Appearance?..a very nice light clear golden with a nice sized frothy/splotchy pure white head.
A good grassy hoppy aroma, with a hint of a creamy malts.
Very sweet in taste, the malts tend to dominate the first 2 thirds of the mouthful, then at the end some pleasing grassy/lemony hoppiness finishes off quite well.
Very pleasant mouthfeel to this, quite full for the style.
I found this most drinkable. I will have to go against the grain on this one and declare it a good helles.

| 1.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 6/20 | May 27, 2005 I guess Liquidsolutions.biz pushed this hard enough for my neighbor to buy. What a huge mistake that was. Poured a golden yellow with a big white head. Looks decent. That’s as good as it gets. Hints of malt and light hops in the nose along with some undesirable funk. Flavor is equally weak....basic lagery malt and minimal bitterness. Thin mouthfeel, watery macro-swill mouthfeel. Blech. I’m very disappointed at how the liquidsolutions site is pushing this...I quote "It runs a bit on the malty side with an herbal lemony hop flavor". What a joke. Sigmund (2275), Hafrsfjord, Norway
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | May 13, 2005 330 ml bottle, now available in Norway. Golden colour, large foamy head. Strong perfumed aroma of shampoo, flowers, molasses and green apples, not entirely pleasant. Flavour is grassy with lemon notes, some sweetness. Low bitterness. Drinkable, but no masterpiece. haf (333), Gijon, Spain

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Mar 29, 2005 This was decent enough anyway. Not complex in the least but a decent hot weather beer. Light yellow appearance with almost no head. A very grassy and lemon presence in the flavor.
