I have to say I was a little let down the 2 times I tried this beer after hearing so many good things about it. It tastes a lot like the standard fare that is clean but not really that flavorful.

Straw colored w/ a decent head. It's crystal clear like a good pils should be. Very grainy in aroma and a touch of lightly skunked hops is there as well... typical import pilsner nose despite the brown bottle. It's very dry and highly carbonated and the mouthfeel is thus quite prickly, but is okay for a pils. This brew is very dry all around-- malt sweetness is minimal, and hop bitterness dominates. Although it's lacking in flavor, this would make a great lawnmower brew (if it weren't over - priced) There's nothing memorable about this pilsner, however.

Decently drinkable german lager, fresh clean, but quite bland in its flavour, good for a hot day when its too hot to drink beer with flavour.

I am not very big on pilsners so I wasnt expecting much when I tried this but boy was i surprised. It was very crisp and clean and easy to drink. A big white fluffy head that rings it's way down the glass. Crystal clear light gold body. With a ending so dry you wonder if it was even in your mouth to start with.
This would make a great summer time beer.

Complex and hoppy upfront taste...very smooth middle and finish, lightly medium bodied, clean finish, no skunk...not my gig but I think its what it needs to be.

Smooth, slightly sweet, clean and crisp, with a good hop character. A good choice on those hot summer days. Better than the American standards, which is not necessarily a bad thing, but at twice the price.

Clean, crisp and refreshing when served ice cold. Nothing too special here otherwise. A decent inexpensive beer.

I agree with Jason, very average beer. Nothing offensive at all about it and they go down nicely, but still average. I think Becks and St Pauli Girl have more character, though.
