Bottled (PBF, red bottle, vintage 2008)
Hazy yellow color, small white head. Wheaty, a bit citrusy and strong alcohol. Sweet, toffee-honeyish, wheaty-banana flavor. Short finish. 17 euros for this?

Bottled. Hazy straw colour, no head. Some cardboard and Belgian style yeastiness up front. Sweet and fruity with above medium body and clean mouthfeel. Marzipan and sorghum joins later. Quite peculiar.

Bottle. Yellow color with very poor head. Fruity aroma with hoppy hints. Taste malt and hops. Boring beer.

Pale yellow liquid with a creamy white head that sticks around very nicely for a pilsener. Some citric hops but mostly clean, sweet grains. Similar flavor, quite clean but lacks complexity. The hops are refreshing. Creamy and sudsy and manages to largely avoid watery lager territory.

12 oz bottle courtesy of bvc. Berkeley, CA on the side of the label, so I assume that’s where this one came from. Pour is clear straw golden with a perfectly white 1 1/2 inch head. Sploychy lacing lines the glass. Aroma is softly sweet cereal grain maltiness, along with nicely balanced mineral and earthy hops. Soft and fresh, nice. Taste is the nose, mildly sweet cereal grain, with a nice bite of mineral earthy hops. There is also a mild vegetal taste that detracts some. Palate is thin to medium bodied, with a nice active carbonation and a dry mineral finish. Thanks Brandon, I like this one - nice classic Pils taste.

Bottle in Vienna, 2006. In the gay lovers’ bottle. Medium golden color, fast fading head. Malty aroma with decent hops in there as well. Decent flavor, well balanced. Ok malt but not oversweet, pretty decent hops as well. Very fruity. Not spectacular, but ok. Finish a little bit dull. A decent beer, but not very interesting or exciting.

0.25 l bottle courtesy of Doggythedog, thanks for giving it away! It poured hazy pale yellow body with medium sized head that is not shrinking at all while I write this. According to BB this should be quite fresh...fine. Sourish grainy aroma, quite stinky with some staleness. Flavor was fine though, really a surprise! Slightly sweetish bread and honey malty with a little, but distinct herbal bitterness. Medium body, actually very full if you consider the style. Cardboard and herbal bitterness comes in the finish, which was long. Definitely not a pilsener, too sweet for it, but decent for a pale lager. Although its just OK, this brew went over my low expectations.

Bottled 250ml. -Courtesy of and shared with Doggythedog (thanks!)
Cloudy yellow coloured, small white head, acidic grainy nose. Bready, slight hoppy and salty with moderate bitter finish. Simple and drinkable pilsener.

Bottle. Very pale orange with an inch of white head. High bead. Grass and spice hop aroma with some hay. Tastes spicy and a little lemony. Little malt presence, but then again I drank this pretty cold. Quite OK as lean aperitif on a warm day. [2.8] Bottle, 10C. Hay, earth and spice aroma. Sour lager sourness and very light malt sweetness. Nice dry noble hop finish. Undemanding but pleasant.

0.33l bottle from the Interspar near Ikea in Graz. Poured a murky yellow body with a medium-small thick white head that went away fairly slowly. The nose was dry and grainy, some stale yeast and eggs. The taste is weak but nicely bready in a way. Some light hoppy bitterness and that’s all. Dull, simple, boring. An one trick pony that doesn’t exactly thrill with that trick even if it’s ok.
