Bottle from Home Bargains, Leeds. Clear golden and no head. Lager malt nose, with a bland lager-malt taste with a very light carbonation.

Kristálytiszta borostyán szín, közepes, viszonylag gyorsan eltűnő hab. Enyhe, lágeres illatok. Pilzeni izvilág, kicsit intenzívebb malátásság és szerintem nem csak saaz van benne. Kicsit szénsavasabb mint kellene. Nem rossz, de nem is kiemelkedő. Utóíze enyhén keserű, és egy picikét kénes. Sajnos a kommerszek felé hajlik.

Bottle at home from wine flair Lisburn. Slight hazed yellow straw coloured pour with a small white head. Aroma is light grains, corn, lager yeast, apple, do hay. Flavour is composed of crisp grains, semi sweet malts, straw, some esters, Apple. Palate is semi crisp, pinch of sweetness, moderate carbonation. OK.

Clear and golden. A nice Pilsener. Some malt sweetness and fruitiness. Light bitterness. Served cold this is fairly decent.

500ml bottle: BBD 1st Jun 16. Poured into a ’Cobra’ pint glass at home early morning on 23rd Sep 15. Clear light golden body with a thin but full white head. Grainy feel to the nose and taste with a slight bitterness in the flavour. Strange Bubble gum like aroma as the beer warmed in the glass, crept into the taste a little too. Weird but OK to be honest.

330ml bottle from Beers of Europe, poured at home into a vase shaped glass, Watzdorfer badged on 24th July 2014. very pale yellow, but clean, bright and clean looking, the white head trying to last. Crisp and citrusy feel to the taste, grainy, boozy nose. Dry finish with a semi-sweet initial taste along with the citrus hints. Easy drinking and pleasant lager.

50cl bottle from Home Bargains, Cwmbran. A straw coloured pour with a thin white head and lively carbonation; cereal grain aroma; crisp grainy body; and a light grassy bitterness leading in to a sweet finish. No worse than any macro lager.

Draught at IBWF15. Clean gold with a thin head. Aroma is light malt. Flavour is clean malt, suttle bitterness on a fruity malt base. More a german Helles style than a pils but would go super with a curry.

Small, bit disparate off-white head over old-golden, clear beer. Rather milky nose, sweetish pale malts, milkripe grain, maltcookies. Bit metallic bitterness. The milky aroma is still there in the background, but the sweetness is held in check. Definitely a lot of toasted malts, corn flakes. Fizzy carbonation, despite visual absence. Empty finish, just the metallic taint lingering on. Until warming up, when it acquires a cigarette ash impression. In the unending if struggling line of world "premium lagers", not the worst. But to what purpose?

Bottle from Hanlon’s, Longford [251014]
Golden blonde, clear, frothy white head
Aroma of light sweet pale malts, slight fruits
Taste of light sweet pale caramel, slight fruits, touch of bitter hops, no citrus (didn’t know there was supposed to citrus in it until I read this). Dull flavour.
Palate - Medium carb and body, bit oily. Finish as main flavour, light bitter finish
Overall - Prefer this over a macro lager, but little going on. Bland and pedestrian.
