THIS JOURNEY IS NOW COMPLETE! This was a challenge I undertook from Feb 2011 to Feb 2012. Thanks to everyone that kept me going! Feel free to read through and comment, I am now also periodically adding reviews here as I sample other beers that I did not come across during the challenge.

Boatrocker Hopp Bier
Dear Eastern Europe - Land of the Pilsner,
Please take note.
Beer does not need to be bland and watery.
It does not need to taste like a glass of wineral water that has just been urinated in.
It IS possible to balance a beer's intial and aftertaste.
Hops are generally a vital ingredient in a good beer, use them.
Yours Truly,
Me
This is one of the better Pilsners I've drunk. It's has a lightly hopped, smooth citrusy beginning that fades into a very tame bitter finish. It's not the world's most exciting journey, but it is a positive one nonetheless. It is an interesting beer amongst a genre I find horribly boring.
Would be a great summer beer. I remember a beer called 'Alpha Queen' from these guys I used to love but haven't seen it for well over a year. Hopefully I stumble across it again.
