A carefully designed recipe, exact percentances of basic, aromatic and caramelized malts, the sole use of one variety of hops and the diversification of the proccess during brewing, give to Notos Gold Lager its distinctive colour and aroma, full body and balanced bitterness. Re-fermenting in bottle and maturemation in low temperatures give an additional characteristic to it making it special. During its brewing, 100% Greek barley malt is used and the hops are of Styrian Golding variety.

Bottle shared with Laura while on holiday. Unclear apple juice color, small white head that diminishes quickly. Aroma and flavor are malts, nicely hayish, quite full of flavor, rich more than lagers mostly are imo. Quite surprised in a positive way.

Gresk aften hos Bryne, og vi er i gang med å glede oss over innholdet i Odd Gunnars importkoffert: lett uklar gylden med fint skum som varer. Fin duft og god smak med citrusfrukter og noen lett tropiske. Mersmak i 4,2%.

26 September 2019. At Cretan Gastronomy Days, Heraklion, Crete. Shared with the lovely Anke! Pours hazy golden with a lasting, small, frothy, off-white head. Aroma of bread, yeast, citrus, faint bubblegum, young mandarin. Taste is light fruity sweet, restrained apple & apricot in a bready-yeasty character with a sourish wheaty touch, some 'crude' bitter grain, low grassy hoppiness into the dry, crisp finish, more yeast, bread & grain. Medium body, slick texture, fizzy carbonation. Tasted fresh, probably at its best.

bottle from supermarket close to the harbor in chania. clear yellow, small wite head. sweetish aroma, mountain flowers and sweet mountain herbs. flavor is straw, herbal bitterness, malts, hoppy bitterness. fairly decent tasting sweet lager, souther european in style, but it does have a macro hop flavorless straw like bitterness that does not fit entirely well. the bitterness and sweetness does not go well together. 420/
