2.8 Golden with a white head - Malt aroma - malt body with some hints of hops to balance - The malt with hints of hop bitterness goes into the finish - This was ok

4.0 Found this beer at a beer 'mega-store' in Warwick, Rhode Island, USA. It was inexpensive, came in a four pack of 16oz. cans, so I figured I'd try it....hey, it's German, so it has to be decent. I liked this beer right away...smooth, but with flavor, a nice head to it, and very easy and tasty beer to drink. For a price of $5.00 it was a bargain. It's great on a hot day when you want a somewhat light beer that has a real beer taste.

2.9 Eerder. Vermoedelijk deze; veel op flat.

2.7 Nose. Malt, sweet, grassy hops. Flavor. Malt with hop grassy bitterness. The body of the beer is pleasant, creamy.

2.7 Przyzwoity czysty choć trochę bezpłciowy lager, nie za bardzo jest się czym zachwycać, szczęśliwie nie ma też czego ganić(może poza pianą)...

2.2 Cerveza de baja carbonatación y cuerpo medio. Aroma a malta, cereales y trigo. En boca destaca la malta y un sabor herbáceo. Tiene un pequeño amargor y tiene un final muy corto.

2.4 Can at home. Vilagos arany szinu, vekony habbal. Semmi extra kis lagerke, kellemes lemosni vele az n+1-edik karacsonyi zabat.

2.6 Burk 500 ml från Systembolaget. Maltig doft med inslag av citrus. Ganska tunn i smaken med inslag av humle och malt. Syrlig och med måttlig beska, lite för mycket kolsyra. En frisk och lättdrucken öl som ändå är helt ok att dricka, mycket mer prisvärd jämfört med många andra industrilager på Systembolaget.

3.7 Where Purchased: 500ml can from LCBO #310. Consumed: from a draught glass. Aroma: Smells mildly of yeast and hops. Appearance : filtered medium gold colour with thin head that disappears immediately with no lacing. Taste: Good malts up front with some sweet and slight bitter hop aftertatse. Palate : full body. Sweet aftertaste. Decent carbonation. Overall: Not a groundbreaking beer, but very drinkable and unoffensive. Glad it wasn't too hoppy. I was glad to try and probably will buy again. MB.

1.8 Barwa złota, klarowne z drobno i średniopęcherzykową pianą, brzydko opada. Aromat bardzo odrzucający, mokra szmata, karton, słodowość, trochę warzyw, do tego farba/rozpuszczalnik. W smaku słodowe, wodniste, nijakie, ale pijalne przynajmniej. Posmaku po prostu nie ma, może i dobrze, bo mógłby jeszcze bardziej popsuć to piwo. Na siłę może lekko słodowy posmak, ale goryczki brak.

3.0 Pours a fairly big foamy bubbly head and has a clear yellowish/golden appearance. Patchy lacing. Aromas of wheats, grains and malts. Flavours are mainly malty and wheaty with notes of light herbal hops. Has a good balance between hops and malts. Crisp and slightly bitter mouthfeel. Not too bad for a cheap import beer. Could be another party-type beer (cheap and easy to drink, but more flavour than a Coors!) :)

2.3 Aromat słodowy, lekko popsuty. W smaku słodowe, szmaciane, nieco odrzucające. Od biedy można wypić. Szkoda tylko, że nie kosztuje aż tak biednie.

3.0 Стандартный немецкий лагер, крепкий середняк. Вкус легкий, сладковатый, совсем без горчинки.

1.7 Ez egy Német Borsodi... Ha csiped a Bőcsi remeket ezt is fogod. Amugy egynek elmegy funyiras utan...

1.5 Piwo idealnie klarowne, piana biała, szybko opada z minimalnym lacingiem. W aromacie, mokry karton, kukurydza. W smaku bez goryczki, słodkie, mocno wysycone.

2.6 Cerveza muy clara y de espuma ligera con sabor a cereal sin mucho amargor...

2.8 Clear straw colored with a small white head. Strong grains, hay, resin, citrus. Medium bitterness, light to medium sweetness, light sourness. Light body, lively carbonation, dry bitter finish.

2.4 Puszka. Jasno złote klarowne z niską pianą. W aromacie zbożowe, mocno daje stęchlizną, starym mokrym słodem. W smaku wytrawnie, szczypiące z ziołową goryczką.

2.5 Bottle from supermarket in Germany. Golden color, white head. Pretty common lager, refreshing but not special

1.6 Aromat stęchlizna, mokra ścierka do podłogi, minimalne nuty chmielowe. Barwa słomkowa idealnie przejrzyste, ładna biała i trwała piana, zostawia ładny lacing. W smaku niska goryczka, trochę jakby kukurydzy, zero nut chlebowych czy ciasteczkowych jakie powinny tu być. Piwo niedobre nie warte zachodu.

2.4 Butelka 0.33. Kolor słomkowy, klarowne. Piana dość słaba. W aromacie zdecydowanie słodowość. W smaku bardzo lekkie, słodowe. Zero goryczki, slodkie. Nie ma tu wiele do napisana, zwykły lager nienajlepszej jakości

2.6 Light, sweet, malty, with a tad of bread in taste. Medium carbonation and almost no bitterness, bit watery. Not much different than any other lager, would see myself drinking this on a party.

5.0 Probably the best

2.4 Sweet, raisins, bit of corn and some soy. Too sweet, need to be drier and more bitter.

2.4 500 ml can. Clear golden coloured beer with a white head. I didn't notice any kind of a particular aroma whatsoever. Rather dry and crisp malty taste. Kind of slow carbonation going up in the glass. There is nothing to speak of. Good drinkability though.

2.7 From Aug 2007 Purchased as part of a mixed 6Pack at Wilbur's Liquors in Ft Collins. It pours from 12oz bottle a clear medium gold with a medium sized head of foam that shrinks to a fine broken layer after a couple of minutes and it has some lacing. The smell is really faint. I *just* get a bit of hops and that's about it. The taste is better than the nose would indicate. I get some good malt graininess on the first sip followed by a pleasant lemon hop character about midway through and it lasts right through to the finish which is crisp and dry. Quite a refreshing Pilsner. Nothing fancy, just plain good.

3.5 Can. From Hipercor. In Bavaria hefe glass. At dinner, with trufas burger. Malty, with plenty strong bitterness and some sweetness through. Maybe slight oxidation but fitting well for my liking. High drinkability

3.2 Ar: Light crackery malts; a hint of sulfur. Ap: Pale gold and clear; medium-small white head with low retention, leaving a sudsy ring and a nebulous covering. T: Very clean cracker malt up front; some dough and sulfur; very light herbal hop flavor with a low, clean bitterness; fermentation profile is clean overall. P: Medium-light body with high carbonation; finish is dry. O: A very quaffable lager; nothing outstanding, and both the malt and hops are a bit too understated, but easy to drink and does have some nice German character on the margins.

1.6 Aroma is grassy. I find hay, but not much more. Taste is pale malt. Light body and thin finish. I like my Dortmunders more robust than this.

2.8 Tough aroma of biscuits with sweet notes of malt, bit of grassy touch. Clear golden in the glass, frothy head. Taste is semi dry with notes of bread, biscuit and grassy, soapy hoppy notes. Finish is herbal, but in the long run beer is okay.
