500ml can. Pours dark gold with a medium head. Aroma is corn, rubber and alcohol. Taste is rubbery with a powerful caramel alcoholic finish.

50cl can from Delhaize. Pours clear dark golden with a quickly thinning, white head. The weak aroma contains maize, malt, alcohol, artificial sweetener and something chemical like solvent. It tastes medium to heavy sweet, hardly any bitterness, with burning and biting alcohol in the finish (which overpowers a cloying sweetness, even). Fizzy carbonation, slick texture, astringent alcoholic finish. At least the ’aroma’ is stronger than in the Finest Gold version. Utterly avoidable.

Can at THT, bought when I was drunk in Belgium. Clear golden with small white head. Sweet cardboard, pils malts, massive sugar, light herbs, pure alcohol. Basically just sugar and alcohol. Very very sweet. Over medium bodied.

Can, picked up from a petrol station on the N6 outside of Brussels, boosted in the passengar seat of Rilesters car from a paper cup, 21/11/15. Clear golden with a decent egg shell white covering. Nose is grain, malt, booze, hint of caramel, light pish, bready malt, fruit rinds. Taste comprises grain, semi sweet malt, harsh booze tones, raw alcohol. Full bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close steeped in booze. A touch harsh but ultimately good boost juice.

Bottled 330ml (from BBF, BB 11/2016)
Clear amber-golden color, small white head. Aroma is skunky and grassy with notes of cardboard. Medium-bodied. Green apple, harsh alcohol, like C-grade vodka flavor, some paper. Lacks totally finest Belgian yeast flavors. Booze bomb.
