Trafalgar’s pilsner style lager is brewed as a mid-European pilsner. As with all pilsners this lager is straw colored with a distinct hoppiness and floral bouquet derived from Saaz and Hallertau hops. Pilsners, like white wines, match very well with less intense flavored dishes such as lean fish, veal and lighter pork dishes.

A beer that I hope I never see again. A golden lager that is grainy in nature - both aroma and flavour. The hoppish hints in the aroma are lost amid the flavours.

One of four bombers purchased in the "politics-pack" where Trafalgar is relabeling their standard beers for each party/leader running in the 2006 elelction....vote with your mouth...vote often...The Harbour gold was labeled" Old Tory lager". Poured a crystal clear light gold into the flute...small white cap diminished quickly. Minimal lacing, moderate carbonation. Aromas very faint....some sweet grainy breadiness and very light floral hopping...no Pilsner "skunk" from this fuzzy bunny. Odd mouthfeel for a Pils; slick and peppery. Malt up front... grainy but almost drowned out by carbonation peppering the palate....later this mellows as the gas comes out of the beer and we get a mellow grainy-bready maltiness that seems to over-power the muted golding hops ( these are not Saaz) until the finish...slightly dry quick finish, light biscuit aftertaste. Not a very good rendition of a Plisner but a fair enough drinkable all-malt lager. However nothing stands out to distinguish this one from the 300 brands of lager on the domestic market

Sweet grain malt aroma mixed with 2 day old wet socks. Kind of bready or on the biscuit side. Pale golden in colour. Not much head, nor lace. No carbonation. Flat mouthfeel. The mouth is kind of sweet with some bitterness. Trafalgar's best tasting beer... so far. Still looking for a good brew from them.

An odd beer. An odd beer indeed. A very sour aroma, but it's not a bad beer at all. It's crisp like a pilsner should be, but does have a bit of a sour undertaste. The taste rating would be higher if it wasn't for that. Also, it has a great cloudy gold colour which I really like, yet no head. Again, that effects the rating.
