Historical Community Tasting Notes

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

Bottle 43F Lager Glass. Strong aroma some skunk and decent hops, not to bad overall yet skunk was prominant. Light fluffy head that was nicely thick with nice clear golden color. Decent hops flavor, but very light on hte tongue, good beer easy to drink nice and refreshing a nice pilsner, if only the american budwiser was simiar.
Bottle. Budweiser anyone? Come on though, its not that bad. enjoyed my bottle with a perfectly made peanut butter and jeely sandwich. I dont think it gets any better than this - no wait, thats Genny.
smells like a pilsener. not super saaz hopps bitterness which is nice. good, but only for a pilsener.
