Oh dear: 30cl bottle, labelled as Naturzuiver Bier, best before Apr 2013. Brought back from Holland to drink at leasure: poured into a Duvel glass on 10 Dec 2012. Bland and boring: looked your typical Pilsner/lager but lacked the sparkle or crispness to carry off the appearance. Odourless and almost tasteless: a slight hop bitterness towards the end of each gulp but nothing at all to get excited about. It may well quench your thirst after cutting the grass or hedge but for the beer hunter, forget it!

0.3l bottle. This is a crystal clear golden one with a heavy lacing medium sized white head. Smells faint and thin malty. Grains and something mildly fruity as well I guess. Nothing to special if you ask me. Sweet and standard in taste. Soft oily in the mouth with an average carbonation level. Pretty standard, a bit on the sweet side, but I like that with this one. 27.09.2012

@Backlog gouden pils met witte kraag aroma: moutig, hop en iets van hooi smaak: iets zoet, met appel/sinasappel, afdronk: licht bitter en lekker fris smaakvoller dan de standaard Nederlandse pilseners @Backlog: was ooit dus eerder de Arcener --- Beer merged from original tick of Pilsener (2020) on 26 Jun 2020 at 15:35 - Score: 6.

33 cl bottle. Pale golden clear liquid with medium egg white head. Aroma of cereal malt, biscuits, noble hops, corn and metal. Dry and light to medium bitter. Not much going on in the taste. Light to medium bodied with high carbonation. Standard euro lager, not that good.

Bottle @ home. Clear golden color, decent sized lightly creamy white head. Smell malts, not much more. Pretty standard ok pilsener smell. Taste malts, lightly bitter. No hops and in general not a lot of flavor, though other Hertog Jan beers are quite decent. Carbonation average, low to medium body.
