15/08/2018 - 33cl bottle @Absolut Summer Bar, Oudenaarde Clear pale colour. Nose is bit malts, sweet, sugar. Taste is same. bit malts, sugar, wattery and sweet. Feels like sugar syrup. Could imagine it being part of a cocktail but on its own it's horrible.

Sampled from 0.25 l can from a local supermarket, brewed by Heineken NL, best before July 2018. Clear, golden yellow with a medium large, frothy, almost stable, white head. Sweetish, artificial, slightly fruity aroma of lemonade and maybe faint hints of tequila. Rather sweet, minimally sourish, artificial and slightly fruity taste of lemonade, grapefruit skin and a touch of tequila, followed by a medium long, moderately bitter, a bit tart finish with some tequila coming through. Medium body, slightly effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. I know I liked this when I was younger and I still think it's not as bad as the overall score suggests. It's not really close to beer though but rather like lemonade with tequila.

Bottle from a Mexican restaurant in Leicestershire. Gold, clear. Lime sherbet aroma. Sweet yet artificial taste, not enticing but not terrible. Slightly sour on the finish. Not the worst beer tonight.
