Clear, chestnut/brown pour with a stable creamy, white head. Aromas of malt, caramel, a hint of cream. Taste is similar. Not bad, but also not breathtaking.

50 cl can @ hotel pool, Fuengirola, BBE 30.04.2024 Aroma is mild with sweet maltiness and toffee. Flavour has sweet malty tones, toffee and nuts. Easy-going and nothing offensive here, better than I expected.

440ml can on the Island Princess. Nose is a caramelly, malty lager with a hint of grassy hops. Rusty orange with a big, heavy lacing, off white head. Flavor is malty caramel with a little bitterness. Smooth and creamy with an awesome nitro pour.

Servida en pinta, bonita cortina nitro, color dorado cobrizo, espuma blanca compacta, extremadamente cremosa de gran duración y residuo. En nariz es muy discreta, algo de malta y caramelo. En boca es de naturaleza sencilla pero muy agradable, notas dulces de malta, melaza y caramelo lanzan destellos al paladar, pese a ser acuosa la magnifica cremosidad de la espuma aporta una textura al trago harto agradable, el final no es nada largo, yo diría medio, dejando recuerdos de notas dulces y lupuladas. Debo reconocer que esta cerveza me da un buen rollo impresionante, no me canso de ella, me gusta, me resulta placentera, me mola su "extra smoothiness".

Pours dark. Clear copper. Small Nitro head. Scent is mild caramel malts, fairly weak. Taste is even more mild, touch of caramel, bread, point of metallic like sharpness. Easley forgettable , not great by any standards - but in a selection of industrial pale lagers , this pops out as different , at least.

Can from kiosk in Paphos. Macro aroma with dried fruits. Nitro vibe. Mix of sweetness and cigarette butts in taste. No thanks.
