500ml can from Albert Heijn in Amsterdam. Pours a crystal clear gold color with a rocky white head and decent retention. Very little lacing. Basic pale lager aroma. Grainy lager flavor with light metallic notes in the finish. Mostly clean and smooth. No awards, but serviceable. Light body and medium carbonation. Low bitterness. About what I expected for an inexpensive grocery store beer.

Cat at home. Aroma is light grainy malt, touch of cereal, cardboard, hint of apples. Flavour is light sweet bitter. Body is light to medium, bit weak. Just your ’basic’ bland Lager, nothing ’premium’ about it.

4,0% ABV. Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.

Fles thuis geprobeerd met LiekevdV. Het is een helder goudgeel bier met een dun schuim welke snel weg ebt. Het heeft een moutige licht zoete geur. De smaak is moutig en zacht, waterige afdronk.

50cl can at home (31 VII 2020) as Albert Heijn Basic Premium Lager, 4.4% ABV. A crystal clear, almost watery bright coloured, yellow to orange and slight golden brew with swiftly diminishing white frothy head. The nose has sweets and malts, some faint earthy tones and different rice flavours. The mouthfeel has a faint carbonation with lots of sweets and corn features. The light alcoholic body has lots of water and bitter-ish grains and a touch of sugar, although nothing really exaggerated. This light bodied lager is a mere quencher with typical corn and wheat flavours, nothing fancy, a straw or hay ending with results into a dry finish. There are far better discounter premium lagers, but this is nothing bad either.

Can. Blonde. Soft bitter flavor. Grainy. Hints of apple and metal. Hardly recognizable aroma. Cheap.
