Historical Community Tasting Notes

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

bottle, pours a gold body with a large white head that leaves a residue as it laces down. whooo, a nose only lumpy could love. skuntastic. crisp hop bitter with some butter note. not much to this. not unenjoyable, but i can honestly say i never would have bought this if my uncle did not need a swing top bottle and me being to cheap to spring for
Straw yellow. Dead skunk in the middle of the road aroma. Slight malt note. Not incredibly fun to drink. However, better than almost all the "premium" lagers I can remember tasting. Seems Grolschs only decent beer, wintervorst, is already retired before I could try it.
Sticky foam head atop a yellow transparent colow. Weak for a "premium" lager. I think this may actually be worse than Bud.
