Travlr (4533) - Washington, Washington DC, USA - NOV 13, 2010
Draft at Ramstein Sports Lounge. Pale yellow, fluffy white head. Aroma of pepper. Taste is bitter and metallic. Not pleasant, couldn’t finish my 0.4 l glass.

mabel (4129) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - NOV 11, 2010
[3254-20100802] Tap. Corn grains aroma. Clear, yellow body with a long-lasting creamy white head. Lightly sweetened grainy malt flavour. Light body. A spectacularly horrific end to one of the best private beer tastings I’ve ever had the pleasure of attending... (Caspar, Jer, stop laughing at me! I’m not a monster. :( )
Overheard: "Mmmm... Synthetic corn."
(fonefan Masters Division Celebration @ The White Horse, London, England; c/o Ethereal)

WillemG (88) - NETHERLANDS - NOV 11, 2010
10-nov-2010 Draught, restaurant Casa di David in Utrecht. Looks like a standard pilsener, OK head. Taste is fresh with a little bitterness in the aftertaste. Decent beer.

kerolasa (353) - Amsterdam, NETHERLANDS - NOV 6, 2010
Looks like lager, with even a bit less colour than most of them. Head seems to be normal. Smell is light, a bit of hops and sweet. Taste is watery, light but you can find modest hint of hops. Yet another uninteresting average beer.

Countbeer (1686) - Best of Eindhoven ohne Brauhaus, NETHERLANDS - OCT 20, 2010
Can: A typical white head on top f a golden yellow body. Smell is more bitter than regulars pilsners. Also malty and grains. Though the taste is well bitter it’s maybe a bit to dominating with less other things to taste than hints of malts and such. Not bad at all, but not to great either.

philbertk (1847) - Seattle, Washington, USA - OCT 3, 2010
Veltins Brauerei--Grevenstein, Germany--Veltins Pilsener. 4.80% ABV. 30 IBU’s? (2.5 / 5.0) Thin mild lace white head. Clear thin bright yellow color. Bavarian stank hint noble hop front. Thin crisp dry Pils body fades to weak mild end. Bland but easy smooth & crisp. 5 oz Taste @ Fremont Oktoberfest 9/24/2010.

troopie (1557) - Munchen an der Willamette, Oregon, USA - SEP 13, 2010
Draught. Poured clear yellow with thick white head. Ringed lacing. Fresh grassy aroma like a spring day. Medium body with light malty flavour. Crisp hop finish. Good with spicy worste.

dwyerpg (3462) - Las Vegas, Nevada, USA - SEP 10, 2010
A very light simple pils with the hop crispness only at the very end. Pale yellow. Easy to drink and complements spicy food well.
