2.7 Backlog. Appearance: Classical pale lager look. Aroma and taste: Crackers, grassy hop. Light sweet and bitter. Mouth feel: Light body, lively carbonation. Summary: A basic budget lager.

2.3 Karcos eléggé. 1.7 elsőre. Másodikra hosszú nap után 40 fokban már 2.3at megér

2.5 18Feb2022 Sweet grain and cereal malts, caramel, bread, cardboard, straw. Clear gold, medium, creamy, white head. Light bitter. Bitter, dry grain and cereal malts, straw, dry, floral notes, bread, med carb, med bod. Not great, lacks depth and balance. Can.

2.7 Pour is a super clear gold with a fizzy white head that goes away quickly. Aroma is sweet chewy malt. Flavor is again kind of sweet but there comes some mineral lager yeast vibes. Drinkable but kind of watery and bland.

3.1 Pours clear yellow with small white head. Malts, grass, light resin bitterness. It's a classic pilsner good for the hot summer days. Medium body and average carbonation.

2.2 Tasted during the Christmas holidays with Niels. A package of overdue pilsners - a brief quality check.

2.2 Tasted with dad along with a lot of other pilsners. More of a quality check of the beers, so im not gonna write much, as the pilsners are gonna be a lot like each other; cardboard and straw

3.3 Clear straw body with a finger and half of head. Aroma is grass and grain. Taste is mild start, a little sweet note, then a mild bitter citrus, finishes clean. Texture is crisp. Nice, easy and flavorful.

2.6 Bottle. Poured clear pale color with an average frothy white head that mostly lasted with good lacing. Moderate balanced aroma. Light to medium body with a smooth texture and soft carbonation. Moderate sweet flavor with a moderate sweet finish of short to medium duration. This soft beer met my expectations.

2.2 Muffig süßlicher Antrunk ohne nennenswerte Aromen. Getreidig. Leicht metallisch. Langweilig

4.2 Schön herb, erfrischend, relativ würzig, nur liegt irgendwie ein leicht nach Eisen schmeckender Geschmack im Bier, der aber nicht allzu sehr stört.

2.0 I was kinda hoping for something a little better here. Heck, I just had a Coors Pure the other day that was better than this. Too bad. It's not terrible, but still. Gold, minimal head. Can. A little resin and soap on the nose. Flavor somewhat metallic, leading to a strong bitterness. Vaguely watery palate, very dry. I can smell a hint of the graininess but can barely taste it. Its unbalanced in that sense, the bittering hop really dominates an otherwise empty palate. Leaves a soapy aftertaste.

3.1 Malty lager like aroma, clear golden, malty taste, slightly bitter, thin, not that bad.

2.3 Bottled, 500ml from Kay Gee's Off Licence, Didcot, Oxon. Gold with white head. This proved to be a soft, malty, sweet beer. Thin lemonade notes, some herby notes, lacks any depth. Notes of tin or rust on the palate. Oh dear.

2.2 Average

1.3 A big foam exists but lasts not so long. Smells malty, tastes bitter and metallic, also herbs. Okay for the inexperienced drinkers, not for me.

2.8 Sample thanks to Grumbo: Poured a golden with a fluffy white head. Aroma is citrus, little soapy, grain. Taste is sweet zesty citrus, grass, and grain.

2.1 Yellow, clear with a large white head. Smell is mainly grains and straw with a little bit of a floral note. Tangy, light bodied. Light bitter.

2.3 8/11/2020. Bottle from Beers Of Europe, Kings Lynn. Pours clear pale gold with a frothy white head. Aroma of grain, sweet malt, straw, light grassy hops. Quite heavy sweetness, with light metallic bitterness. Moderate body, oily texture, average carbonation. So so.

1.5 Goud geel bier met een stevige witte schuimkraag. Het bier smaakt mooi granig zoet met een klein bitter aroma. Heeft daarnaast iets klein waterigs. Eindigt ligt bitter.

3.3 Straw blonde with wheat chaff head that soon fades. This brew has a pleasant and clean grain aroma with gentle malting in the background. Lightly sweet and appealing. The body too has gentle grain and malting and is lightly sweet, without being cloying. Low tannins and almost no bitterness. A grain-forward brew to enjoy as a reward of a summer harvest.

2.5 Sept 2020. Stubby daek bottle from Beers of Europe. A standard global lager. Easy drinking. Inoffensive. Soft hops. Mild, vanishing malt flavour. Watery texture. Little character. [2.5]

3.5 11.2oz can. Filtered, super clean dulled tan body. Soapy white head, steady. A little duller than I expected, pretty much a standard World Lager type creature, not as bright or hoppy as you'd hope a Pils would be. $7.49 a sixpack was reasonable enough, I'd imagine it is half of that in Germany, which would make it even more reasonable. Very sessionable, OK for a Pale Lager, but not that great of a Pils.

3.4 Clear yellow color with a thin white head and light lacing. Malty aroma and flavor with light floral and honey notes.

4.5 En øl der er fyldt med kærlighed fra Pauli❤️ En øl der smager godt, og hvis den er på menukortet, så står den som en øl, jeg bil vælge som en af de første. Jeg har også smagt den på fad, og den skuffer bestemt heller ikke.

4.2 Dejlig øl, som kun kan anbefales, hvis du er i Tyskland så gør dig selv den tjeneste og køb den.

2.5 330 ml bottle in Hamburg. Some malt, hay, metallic hops. Metallic bitterness. Medium bodied, watery texture, lively carbonated, bitter finish.

2.9 Stubbi 33cl. Lebt vom Reeperbahn-Fame, am Ende des Weges ernüchternd, wenig Hopfen, malzig, in Richtung Export gehend. Weniger Pils. Ganz nett.

2.0 Birra pils debole di aroma e di gusto, corpo leggero e retrogusto amaro erbaceo.

2.1 Pours clear bright golden with a three finger, white head. Aroma is caramel and citrus hops. Taste is light caramel, moving to lemon and light Saaz hops. Finish is citrus, light lemon and Saaz hops.
