Draft at GABF. Pours a mostly clear gold with a nice white head. Nose is grainy, lots of pils malt notes. Crisp and clean with some light herbal hopping. On taste, it’s clean and simple. Easy drinking, balanced. Nothing really shines, but not a bad beer at all.

Dickinsonbeer (5077) - Hoboken, New Jersey, USA - DEC 27, 2010
GABF 2010. POurs a pale yellow golden with a thin white head. Aroma is grassy crackery pils malts, some straw and husk dustiness with light herbal hints. Flavor is light pils malt, cracker, some white wine hints, mineral light metallic, grass, earth and a dry mineral finish with a bit of astringency. A bit off.

BelgianBeerGal (2105) - Dayton Area, Ohio, USA - JAN 10, 2010
Draught at the brewery. Looks like their pils differs greatly between batches. Luckily mine was pretty nice. Slightly above average pils that had a little more hop than typical. Crisp, easy drinking style that finished with some cereal notes.

hellbilly (2857) - scottsdale über alles, Arizona, USA - JUL 6, 2009
clear pale straw yellow color with a thin white head and some spotty lacing. solvent-y alcohol aroma...ick, followed by grainy sweetness and fruit. the palate is WAY too sweet... flavors of strawberries, lemon and spicy grain. medium bodied leaning on syrupy which keeps it from being refreshing or enjoyable. 3/3/4/2/8/2.0

decaturstevo (3387) - decatur, Tennessee, USA - MAR 12, 2009
Golden pour with creamy white head and lace. Corn, light malt, and a hint of hops. Light corn, very light malt, and a light bitter. Pretty foamy but not thin. A beer close to being real good.
