Smells like corn, tastes like corn. The body poured a clear golden/straw color with a thin off-white head. The flavor was dominated by corn and plenty of artificial sweet flavor. Vegetabley and not very pleasant. Hops leave a grassy mouthfeel. Too sweet and slightly offensive for a cheap lager.

A basic pale lager with nothing to distinguish it from the multitude of international pale lagers. +++ Sampled from a 12 oz green bottle this beer pours a light golden color with a large white head. There is a slight sour, grassy aroma. The texture is smooth but the brew is relatively flavorless. Very little body. No skunkyness, or any offending flavors, but not really any good flavors either. There really is not much to this beer.

Blond color. Sweet corn aroma. Some sweetness, corn, poor hop. Poor table beer.

Imported Bottle. So what makes it an Italian beer? This and Moretti suggest a bit more hop bitterness in a light lager. I had this cold (that is, I was cold) at an outdoor mini-Italian fest in Chicago in October. Nice golden color under a thin but persistent head. I can taste the malt, balanced by an agreeable hop bitterness and yeast bite. Noticeably more body to it than you'd expect, and finishes well. Matches well with a hot Buona Beef sammich.

(Bottle and draught). Very light golden colour, moderate head. "Neutral" pilsener flavour (yes, another one!) Drinkable, but Nastro Azzurro is better.

Compared with stablemate Nastro Azzuro, this is crisper, slightly hoppier, but loses refinement (mostly in the form of grassiness. in the process.

I have the sinking suspicion that any #1 in it's country beer is awful. Coincidentally this tastes as bad as the #1 beer in the USA. As such, I doubt I will ever bother with it again.

re-rate: Light gold with no head, but decent lacing. Aroma is mild if non-existent. Flavor is quite bland: virtually no malt. Lingering bitterness is from hops but there's a strange off-taste to it that makes me think of adjuncts.

Pale yellow. Light bodied & soft. not much flavour, but not as as unpleasantly thin as many beers in the same style.
