Jonpol (1181), Sasquacho, Arizona, USA Feb 1, 2006 Updated: Apr 22, 2008**Highly underrated** Pours bright, pale yellow w/ a full, creamy froth. Good head retention reveals a silky canopy w/ a few spattered islands and a full ring of lace. Aromas of fresh malts and herbs. Medium nectar w/ ample soft residual effers. Texture is close to cream. Flavors are bright, crisp and clean w/ delicious vanilla cream, citrus nectar, and mild herbs. This has got to be the best tasting lager I’ve ever had. The finish has a most excellent bittering component keeping me in the ready for another sip. Overall: flavorful and well balanced with none of the typical skunky flavors present in most lagers. Thoroughly enjoyed and highly recommended. Shadallion (518), Sacramento, California, USA Aug 12, 2001 The unchallenged king of Pilsners. A true taste of pure, artisanal brewing skill from the oldest brewery in the world. Completely dominates the competetion. 5crown99 (9), Maryland, USA does not count Feb 26, 2002 its been my favorite beer ever since i tried my first sixpack of the 'premium bavaricum' baseballguy (246), Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA Sep 25, 2003 Labeled as Original Lager. I was very impressed by this. I thought it was a first-rate lager, top of its style, and am rating it accordingly, especially since lagers tend not to get the highest ratings here at RateBeer. mikeben (325), Naperville, Illinois, USA Feb 21, 2003 Good lager. Similer to Hacker Pshorre Munich, it is one of the best non weiss.
