Bottle from a trade with Grumbo, thanks! Aroma is dishwater, cardboard, light malty with notes of cereal. Flavour is above moderate sugary sweet and light bitter. Body is light and very watery, with annoying carbonation. Yikes, this one is really poor.

Bottle from a stall close to the cruise port in Curaçao. Pours pale gold with a frothy white head, and is visibly well carbonated. Very light straw and malty aroma. Quite heavy sweetness, light bitterness. Light body, some oiliness to texture.

Shared 250 ml bottle at local tasting. Golden colour, white head. Moderate grassy aroma. Pretty dull flavour, grainy, not offensive, drinkable but boring.

Shared bottle at RB/HB on board Fridtjofen 26.01.16. Very clear pale straw colour. Sligthly sour aroma, with some grass and lime. Similar taste. Artificiality in mouthfeel.

Flaske (kjøpt på Curacao), delt på rbhd-treff ombord på Fridtjofen jan-16: klar lys gylden med kort hvitt skum. Kort er også aroma, smak og ettersmak. Litt gress og mye sødme.

Bottle picked up from a supermarket in Willemstad, Curaçao. Somewhat hazy golden appearance with a disappearing white head. Aroma is more substantial than many international pale lagers. There’s some corn, lemon, cardboard, and lots of bread. Dull carbonation. A little too sweet. Body is not as flabby as Corona. The flavor isn’t great but fairly equal to the five cans of Budweiser I just scooped on a snorkeling trip. Not something I’d drink again unless I’m in the Caribbean and it was the only offering but drinkable in the sun.
