Pale gold body, white head. Sweet grainy aroma. Bread flavor, with hops bitterness. Watery, enjoyable beer to drink.

chronictonic (434) - Oreland, Pennsylvania, USA - MAY 6, 2009
Tap @ UJs - pale gold straw. Lacks real aroma and what there is is slightly metallic. Flavor is light and crisp - very clean and quaffable. Could be a little crisper on the palate, but overall a very good German pilsner.

A very enjoyable German Pilsner. I have learned not to put much emphasis on numerical rating, although I do assign scores to beers. Anyhow, I enjoyed this one. A nice little beer.

bedainedebiere (490) - Terrebonne, Quebec, CANADA - APR 23, 2009
2,50$ for a 500ml can at SAQ, which is a rather low price. I’m always pessimistic towards beer cans. It might be a psychological thing but I still taste some metallic notes in an otherwise quite decent, slightly spiced and fruity pilsner. Honest product but far from overwhelming to me. Probably better poured from a bottle, though...

floydian1 (481) - FNQ, AUSTRALIA - APR 20, 2009
330ml bottle. A clear pale yellow beer with a decent foamy white head. Nose of grainy sweet malt and subtle floral hops. Medium sweet bready malt flavours predominate with a gentle hop bitterness to the finish. Highly carbonated with a tingly mouthfeel. Medium bodied. A decent if unremarkable pilsner.

SaintMatty (2645) - Uppsala, SWEDEN - APR 17, 2009
500ml Can (Thanks FatPhil) - Pale golden with a foamy white head. Grainy aroma with malty, citrus and a hint of tea. Malty and lightly hoppy taste with some dry citrus hints.

500ml can (Rimi, Vilnius)
Weetabix aroma. Horror taste - acidic and nasty. Plenty of tingy hops, none of them good. Nasty is just too dominant, not a good beer at all.

Bragesnak (3674) - Aarhus, DENMARK - APR 15, 2009
Tasting af Pia. Bottled, 130409. Golden with white head. Aroma of malt, Flavor malt with an OK hop profile
