Review based on the BJCP2015 guidelines (style 34B: 2A/21A). Bottle 33 cl - Batch L92036F002 (BBF 19/05/20). AROMA: medium-low grainy aroma (corn-like) with a neutral profile. low background metallic note. very faint pine-like hop presence. APPEARANCE: deep gold to light copper color and cristal clear. medium-low off-white head with average retention. TASTE: similar to the aroma with medium-low grainy flavor, neutral, with medium bitterness. faint citrusy note. finishes dry and slightly bitter. PALATE: medium-low body with medium-low carbonation. OVERALL: a kind of india pale lager where the hops have long gone.

Tapped version, Barcelona, Footballarium. The foam was not much, the smell is delicately hopy, but you can also feel malt, Czech, German base beer. It was fresh, so tapping into a really good refreshing fresh lager. He could have taken a little more hops.
2020 03 02. Published in boxed version at home as well. It has a nice amber color, its foam is yellowish white, huge when filled, and then fades quickly. Slightly boxed metallic scent, but delicious. It also has a metallic taste, but is more of a hop hop lager. Tiny is disembodied, but maybe even better than tapped outside.

Csapolt verzió, Barcelona, Futballárium. Habja nem sok volt, illata finoman komlós, de maláta is érződik, csehes, németes alapsör illat. Friss volt, így csapolva egy nagyon jó üdítő friss láger. Kis komlót még elbírt volna.
2020 03 02. Megjelent dobozos verzióban itthon is. Szép borostyán színe van, a habja sárgásfehér, kitöltéskor hatalmas, majd gyorsan apad. Kicsit dobozos fémes illat, de finom. Ízre is fémes, de mellette inkább komlósabb lager. Picikét testetlen, de talán még jobb, mint a csapolt kinti.

Thuis uit een flesje, gekocht bij de Jumbo. Amberkleur, roomwit (weinig) schuim. De naam suggereert veel hop, maar ik vind het wat slapjes. Lekker, maar niet bijzonder.

Pint at the gravity bar. Brilliantly clear deep gold in color with a thin white head. Bready crackery maltiness with bits of floral spicy citrus hop. This was everywhere in Ireland and was a good choice when there wasn't something more interesting and your were tired of Guinness stout.

Clear medium golden colour, good frothy white head, half-way lastig, good lacing. Rather weak aroma, sweet malt, grain, light grassy. Taste medium sweet and slightly bitter, malty, grainy, light caramel, sweetbitter aftertaste. A decent thirst quencher.

Typical light lager, but not a lot of flavour. clean and crisp as you’d expect, but easy. (3.3 June 2019) Retried, it has a clear hop presence, definitely a modern lager. Good flavour

Tap at scholars lounge, rome , italy. Clear golden, smooth offwhite head. Aroma is mild and somewhat rubbery. Flavor is malty sweet malty faint herbal hoppy note. Earthy rusty bitter note. No way this is a 90+ lager. Or they put on some shitty italian lager instead of the advertised. It is very smooth , also nicely breadish. Hopping is disturbing (metallic, vomit)

Bottle, 0.50l. Aroma is bready, biscuity, grassy, floral and creamy. Pours clear pale amber color with medium sized soapy off-white head and average sparkling appearance. Taste starts with light sweet caramel, following is mild fruity, grassy and slightly medicinal, mouthfeel is smooth, while finish is medium bitter. Light to medium body, creamy texture and lively carbonation in palate. Deserve’s a Guinness name...
