Bottle from bar in Dhermi. Pretty standard lager, not much to say or scream. Re rated. Very smooth to drink. Last rating on trip, not so sure about it. (22/6/17). --- Bottle from hotel roabl in Orikum area. Wheat malty smell. 2.1 to 1.9. Pretty poor lager all being said.

Bottle in Peje/Pec - Kosovo. Filtered golden pour, tich white foamy head. Nose: a note of corn and a bit of pepper/grass. Mouth: watery, without any character. Evident flaws in the execution, something really wrong I cant describe. No!

A 0.33 l bottle that poured a pale yellow body with a small head. Weak hay aroma with some lemon. Flavor was that familiar watery sweet to sour lager, hay, grainy, lemony and lightly metallic on top of it. Thin in body with moderately long sweetish hay finish. Quite bad, one of the worst macro beers currently in Albania (and I had time to revise most of them). Don’t really know myself why, but expected much more from it. Actually, something at least.

Whee, thanks heavy! Pale golden body with a tiny white head that went away fast. Very very light lemony hoppiness and sweetish grain in the aroma. Empty, oily taste, vaaaguely soapy and lemony. Clean generally, OK. But very watery. Nothing to write home about.

Heller, süßlich getreidiger Antrunk auf geringem Level. Dabei süffig, abgesehen vom pappigen Hintergrund gar nicht mal schlecht. Kurzer Nachhall. In Ordnung. 8/7/8/6/8/6

Pours a clear golden color, topped with a frothy white head that immediately dissipates. Mild, aroma, just some (sweet) grainy notes. A bit smelly and presence of wet cardboard. Taste is sweet, grainy. No real bitterness, but instead a quite unpleasant metallic feel. Not Albania’s best.
