Historical Community Tasting Notes

Preserved from the RateBeer community archive (circa 2000–2018)

UPDATED: JUL 10, 2008 50 cL can. Pours clear and golden yellow to orange with a lacing white head. Mild fruity hops aroma, light accents of peach. Flavour is light sweet and fruity. Very mild bitterness into the finish. Nice balance and delicate hops bitterness and fruityness.6-4-7-3-13=3.3 From tap at Modr Abb, blindtasting beer #6. Pours crystal

Pours a crisp golden color with a thin white head that fades quickly. Aroma is skunky, grass, and slightly hoppy. Taste is malty, corn, with a bit of citrus. A decent pilsner but doesnt excite me too much.

grass, hay, floral, golden, clear, frothy head, lingering head, medium sweetness, medium bitterness, light body, medium texture, nice mellow bitterness in the finish
