| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 7, 2009 On tap @ Cole’s. Pours a crystal clear gold with a nice white head. Aroma is grassy with no real maltiness. OK but not the best. There is a bit of nice malt in the flavor before it’s overtaken by huge bitterness. I would have been much happier if there was more malt character & less of that overwhelming hop. savnac (414), Palmer, Alaska, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 19, 2009 On tap @ Victory. Golden yellow with a white head. Spicy, peppery hop aroma with a rich malt scent. The flavor is bitter and sweet with a long bitter finish. Medium to light in body with active carbonation and a clean crisp finish. Very nice.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Sep 27, 2009 Draft. Pours a golden body with a thin white head. Floral aroma and hoppy with a more dry earth like body. Hints of p[ear and citrus finish is really bitter and drying. I didn’t care for this much. CUJO (339), Brooklyn, New York, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Aug 12, 2009 Draft at Uber. Now we’re starting to get somewhere. Pours an attractive bright gold with some serious bursting carb, tons of nucleation columns showing. Looks like beer, by god. Decent creamy platinum blonde head. Skunky, funky (by light lager standards, not by lambic standards), weedy-herbal hop nose. Pleasantly pungent. Crisp and creamy light body. Bracing, refreshing dark skunky dank mid-palate. Plenty of flavor and refreshment here. Dickinsonbeer (3449), Hoboken, New Jersey, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jul 26, 2009 Tap at BT for the Victory Promo night, listed as braumeister pils spalt select hops. Pours a very light clean gold with a nice fluffy white head. Aroma is a sharp yet clean spalt hops- almost mineral like, green grassy floral and lightly spicy. Flavor is similar- grassy, mineral sharp edge to the hops, floral and definitely fresh as hell with a great clean crisp lean pils bready malt backbone- not as doughy or rich as the hallertauer- almost more mineral and lean and sharper overall. Still awesome. tgncc (809), Bellmore, New York, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jul 1, 2009 The aroma is malt, grass, lemon. The appearance is slightly hazy, gold with a moderate white head. The flavor is sweet, malty, grassy, lemony, and slightly bready. The finish has an astringent hop bitterness. Decent overall, different.
