DrBayern (1139) - Morehead City, North Carolina, USA - JUL 10, 2006
12 oz. bottle. Pale straw color, medium white head. Light straw aroma, bit of grassy hops. A little thin feeling, although it’s clean. Not quitre enough malt for me. Grassy hops in the finish, which is lightly bitter and astringent. Unremarkable.

maeib (6398) - Wootton, Northampton, Northamptonshire, ENGLAND - JUL 7, 2006
Draught - Wellington Birmingham. A golden yellow coloured beer with no head. The aroma is sweetish and crisp with a little grassy hop. The taste is clean and cold. Crisp but nowt much else really.

Glouglouburp (4558) - Montreal, Quebec, CANADA - JUN 25, 2006
Clear yellow, small white head. Pleasant grassy hops and fruity nose. Taste is grassy and lightly fruity but sadly less hoppy than I expected. Short finish with light bitterness. Definitely not a tasty beer but still a nice summer beer. The type of mass-marketable easily-drinkable beer that north-american macros should make if instead of just promoting generic beers using tv ads with cute babes they would actually try to sell a different taste… using cute babes in tv ads.

JorisPPattyn (6428) - Antwerpen, BELGIUM - JUN 25, 2006
Draught, but tapped horribly with too much rinsing water in the glass... Very clear pale gold, with a very dense, fine-bubbled white head. Grassy nose, "herb", bit with very little distinction, rather neutral. Very dry, hayish, wheat flour-like taste. Neutral again, but in the positive way this time. Finish is slighlty smokey. Reasonable German Pilsener. Pity for the nose.

bager (2121) - Copenhagen N, DENMARK - JUN 18, 2006
On tap. Light golden in colour with a small white head. Weak and thin. Hints of malt and hops. Too sterile.

beerlady (543) - lucerne, SWITZERLAND - JUN 7, 2006
clear golden color head diminishes extremly fast smells malty-sweetish but a bit hoppy too,some bread-like smell very carbonated tasts malty and hoppy, aftertaste malty,hoppy,bitter-sweet(more bitter than sweet),at the end only a artificially seeming bitterness stays,but stays very long Not very bad,has more tasts than some other,but the bitterness at the end is rather harsh

frankenkitty (1953) - Oak Lawn, Illinois, USA - JUN 4, 2006
Golden with a hint of haze, constant effervescence and a small, white head that fades quick. Pale malt aroma is strong and sweet like DME or Ovaltine with a touch of lemon. Strong malt presence in a mid-bodied bier with light bitterness to finish. Tasty and refreshing.

maniac (3474) - Baltimore, Maryland, USA - MAY 31, 2006
Fizzy pale yellow color with a medium frothy white head. Aroma of sweet honey and mild grain. Very grainy with some corn flavor and light honey.
