badbeer (432), Iowa, USA Oct 13, 2008 Cristal clear golden color with a white head that sits atop and retains very well, leaving spots of lacing as the beer is consumed. Some bread, biscuits, light honey, grain husk, and a nice herbal hoppy presence in the aroma. Soft hay and grains greet the tongue, followed by a touch of honeybread and earthy hops right along side it; finish is a bit on the hoppy side. Clean, crisp, but still full of flavor; both malt and hops are strong, but neither is dominant. Medium carbonation and medium body, but the dry finish helps it from being cloying. Review average seems incredbly low to me, this is such an awesome Pils.
Veer (355), Landskrona, Sweden Nov 7, 2009 Aroma: weak, slightly acidic hop aroma. Somewhat greasy, cocoabutter?
Flavour: weak, fruity, watery. Ridiculous. Tastes like slightly hoppy mineral water w/ corn malt.
Palate: fizzy. Slightly acidic. Naah... thin.
Appearance: light yellow w/ pale near white foam that disspiates. lefossoyeur (44), Montreal, Quebec, Canada Oct 26, 2009 Clear golden with a nice white head. Notes of hay and grasses, creamy with a lingering bitterness. This is a truly great pils. Everything’s there. Malty, prety hoppy, creamy and so easy drinking. A true spirit pilsner. Borup (1345), Albertslund, Denmark Oct 22, 2009 Bottle. Clear golden colour with a medium white head. Aroma and flavour of hops, herbs and malt. downender (2535), Bristol, Gloucestershire, England Oct 5, 2009 330ml bottle. Pale gold with a slight white head. Light, bready malt aroma, slightly sweet.

Quack-Duck (3128), Bodensee/Schwarzwald, Germany Sep 29, 2009 bottled, draught and 5l mini-casks, on several occasions. Clear golden yellow colour, large and creamy white head. Hoppy nose. Medium to full-bodied with a solid underlying maltiness and a shy hopcharacter. Grassy with hints of hay and herbs. A wel-balanced Pilsener. sayravai (3720), Helsinki, Finland Sep 26, 2009 (Bottled, BBE 03/2010) Clear yellow-golden with a smallish, bubbly head. Quite malty and buttery aroma with light grassy hoppiness and a touch of metal. Flavor is herby-piney-hoppy, surprisingly dry and bitter, but still with reasonable backing maltiness. Almost medium body with slightly fizzy carbonation. A quite sharp, but well-made and hoppy pils.
