3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 hawthorne00 (1306) - Melbourne, AUSTRALIA - JAN 28, 2010
UPDATED: AUG 23, 2010 Bottle. Very pale orange with an inch of white head. High bead. Grass and spice hop aroma with some hay. Tastes spicy and a little lemony. Little malt presence, but then again I drank this pretty cold. Quite OK as lean aperitif on a warm day. [2.8] Bottle, 10C. Hay, earth and spice aroma. Sour lager sourness and very light malt sweetness. Nice dry noble hop finish. Undemanding but pleasant.

Pours a clear amber colour, highly carbonated. Not much of an aroma to speak of, a hint of lemon. Very thin head which dissipates quickly. Very little taste, could have almost mistaken it for lightly flavoured water. It’s not that it tastes bad, it just doesn’t really taste anything.

1.7 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20 jonno (1312) - JAPAN - DEC 23, 2009
BB 8/10. Pour is straw yellow with foamy head. Nose is pure premium lager. Cabbage and funk. In the mouth it is smooth, but watery - thin and bland. Slight metallic aftertaste. Wanted to like this as it’s redily available, but this was pretty ordinary. Got it from Dan Murphys so it may well be skunked, but even still there was little to make me want to try again.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 Kuzo (108) - Allentown, Pennsylvania, USA - NOV 15, 2009
Pours a pale yellow with thin white head. Smell is grassy and lemon. Taste is similar to the nose with herbal hints. The finish is very crisp and dry. I found this to be very drinkable.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 Elwood (1834) - Between a rock and a hard place, Virginia, USA - NOV 10, 2009
Serving: 12 oz. bottle.
Appearance: Pale gold color with a foamy, white head. Decent head retention and only spotty lacing.
Aroma: Grass, noble hops, a bit of euro lager, and not much on the malt side.
Flavor: Spicy hops, grass notes, a bit of grainy sweetness, and a decent back bitterness. No award winner, but not too terrible either.
Palate: Medium-high carbonation with a light mouthfeel and a medium, bitter finish.
Overall: I’ve had better pils, but I didn’t find this one to be as bad as others said. Take it or leave it.

Bottle. Clear, pale golden pour with a short-lived, bubbly white head. Grainy aroma has notes of sweetness, funk and malt. Flavour is very similar; a bit sweeter and with hints of citrus and hops. Light, dry mouthfeel with a nice amount of hoppy bitterness that lingers. A pretty nice pilsener, easy to drink and very refreshing.
