Pours a light straw gold with a fairly thin white head that goes away after a minute. Aroma is "skunky", typical of a green-bottled beer. Nice hops balance, crisp finish. Nice beer for a summer day. Pair with a quality hot dog and mustard, along with german potato salad.

3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 Quack-Duck (5598) - Down South, GERMANY - APR 24, 2008
bottle from Interspar Bregenz. Clear pale golden colour, large and creamy head. Very intensive hoppy aroma, flowery. Full-bodied, very hoppy in a flowery way, bitter-sweet with hints of Saaz hops. Reminds me of good Czech 12° lagers, although this one is more flowery and perfumy. Well-matured, pleasant mf and carbonation. My first Austrian beer since a long time - and what a surprise, this is superb!
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 JorisPPattyn (6427) - Antwerpen, BELGIUM - APR 21, 2008
Draught; sample from Trumer Berkeley Brewery, CA Pale gold, with a small white head. Leafy, slightly grassy nose, with loads of pale malts. Extremely malty taste, typical pale malts, and just a touch of good EU hops in the finish. Bit of diacetyl all the same. Lightly, bit fizzy. More than decent Pilsener, and no doubt a true rendering of the original.

Clear yellow. Moderate sized head, some lace and retention. Aroma is grass, some bread, somewhat buttery. Body is medium to light, bitterness is moderate to high. Very drinkable and refreshing.
